Golden Glade Upon Return

Aspen ventured out of the tunnels on one of her many trips into the outside world now that her pups were old enough to be let be for some time on their own. They had been resting when she had gotten up to leave and retrieve some meat for them to eat. She was gradually trying to get them adjusted to the concept of eating meat instead of her milk knowing full well she would not be producing milk for them much longer. 

Some took to the meat well, others.....not so much. The child she was most worried about was Rose, she refused the concept of meat every time it was brought up to her and Aspen couldn't help but fear that when she stopped producing milk the child wouldn't eat.

Aspen trailed into the forest keeping eyes and ears open for the sound of animals scurrying around in the freshly fallen snow. Though what she ended up finding was not in fact food but a familiar face. Freya. Seems her and Shalon had both returned recently from there travels and the Queen was curious to see how it went. The now slender and not pregnant looking female trotted over letting out a friendly chuff as she approached.
