Shadewood Hey now put your hands in the air

Phex was tired of sleeping in cold and under trees. She wanted a den and that is what she'd get. 
So now, the youth could be found at the designated den site making a massive mess of her den.
She'd never dug a den before but, seriously, it was a hole? Right? She'd dug some pretty cool holes before to hide stuff so. Now she needed to dig an ultra hole to sleep in.

The problem with Phex was that she was small and her legs shorter than most. But she had puppy sized paws that'd she'd retain forever, like little, clubbed feet but cute because, let's be honest, its Phex. So the piebald girl scrabbled a the hardened ground, not making much progress apart from scraping up damp leaves over her underside and covering her chest -- somehow.
At least she was having fun; or was until her paws started to hurt from the partly frozen ground.

However, Phex, being the stubborn little shit she was, kept trying to dig until she had spent her day making a measly dent in the ground. Nothing magnificent, but it was a start. Her paws were cold, a soft sprinkling from the trees had fallen onto her back. The girl took a rest, panting softly and slumping down on the small pile of dirt she'd shoveled out of the way.
Den making was very hard, she realised.
She wondered what @Cry and @Gwen would make of her grand design.
