Swiftcurrent Creek Closing in

There are other children within Swiftcurrent Creek now. Helios is uncertain how feels about it. Everything must be shared, including the attention of his siblings. The first born feels fire in his chest, and tries to swallow the strange feeling down. His tail snaps side to side in irritation. Trotting along, he does not expect to see an unknown pup, closer to his age than the newest additions to Swiftcurrent. She does not smell of their pack either.

« Who are you? » French flows freely off the raven boy's tongue. He approaches with his tail curled upwards, standing tall despite the ache in his sickly body.
