The Sunspire So close to going all the way

Referencing the food shortage thread in the MO forum: "Weekly group hunt results for 30th July - 5th August: wolves are lucky this week again, they manage to surround and kill an unusual visitor in the plains - a wild horse. There is enough to satisfy hunger for the next few days.

There are also hooves, a mangled head and other remnants for the puppies to play with."

Day by day, Breccan was becoming more and more active. He wanted to move and play as much as possible, to satisfy some deeply-felt itch that told him to keep going. His energy was all but endless, and when he did run out of steam, he crashed hard. Presently, he had just woken from one such power nap, and he bounced out of the den and into the bright midday sunlight.

The puppies that had joined them in their den for a short time were gone, leaving him with only his sisters as playmates. They didn't always want to interact with him, though, so for now he planned to amuse himself with some of the toys that had been dropped off a few days prior. Crouching with his rump in the air, wiggling in preparation, he eyed a horse hoof and then pounced on it. He seized it between his forepaws, then batted it away, sending it skipping over the rocky ground to come to a stop a few feet away. With a yip, Breccan repeated the maneuvers, his little tail whipping happily over his back.
