Stone Circle A whole new world

He is unsure how he feels about this 'there's a world out there!' concept. One one hand, the comfort and assured safety of his mother is appealing to pretty much every aspect of his young life, but on the other, the youthful curiosity at the back of his mind begs him to go out and explore. And he does, one step at a time, critiquing everything he sees of course, but taking this newfound sense of adventure in strides. 

This time, he follows his sister as she makes an exit out their den, ears adept and eyes keen to observe anything and everything that occurs around them. Letting out a quick call for her to wait up, "Cha step!" He hurries his stubby, chubby legs to walk by her side, softly bumping into her as she walks. Whether it is to protect her or protect himself, he simply doesn't want to be alone, not while he knows there are others out there that are much bigger and stronger than him and somehow, that concept frightens him.
