The decision to leave the boulder had been an easy one — at least, for Olive it had been. She had never been fully committed to the idea of forever upon the boulder, especially not after the cats had come, run rampant, and then died off as quickly as they came. She was relieved when the news had come that there was a territory with potential, ample potential, just a stone’s throw away. She was even more relieved when the entire pack had all agreed and activated quickly in order to vacate the diseased lands. There would be no need for her family to travel alone; not this time. It was a grand thing.
Olive let the rest of the pack travel ahead of she, with their navigators in the lead. She was no longer a scout, which was a reality that sometimes weighed heavily on the lithe she-wolf. She had been a wander at heart, inquisitive by nature, but now her obligations weighed her down more than her curiosities kept her moving. Her mental map of the wilds had long since yielded to survival strategy and keen forward-thinking; but would she exchange her children, or responsibilities, for even an iota’s chance at the scout’s lifestyle again? Not a chance — and especially not when she looked down and saw little Séamus and Ibis by her side, and surely Eleuthera and Okeanos off somewhere nearer to the front, and the entirety of the sanctuary willing to move and change names and essentially leave everything they had come to know. That, to Olive, was what bonded families together.
and all my days are trances, and all my nightly dreams
are where thy grey eye glances, and where thy footstep gleams
in what ethereal dances, by what eternal streams
are where thy grey eye glances, and where thy footstep gleams
in what ethereal dances, by what eternal streams
