Stone Circle heartache

At nearly three months, Nikai was slowly beginning to grow into his body, at the edge of a future growth spurt. He knew that @Keoni had been sick, but she had also gotten better, much to Nikai's relief. Things were looking up on the whole, and he was a cheerful and optimistic child, always ready to try something new or take on the world, but also soft and inclusive towards others. It looked like he would grow up to be a caring wolf, for even as a child he tried to help or unburden others where he could, even if his means were limited and instinctive.

Today was a day with a lot of sun. Nikai sat outside of the den in the snow and stared into the sun, squinting his eyes so that he could better see. He glanced over his shoulder, not sure whether Keoni was inside of the den or somewhere else. He hadn't played with his sister in some time, because she had been sick for such a long time, and he hoped to change it today if he could get a hold of her.
