Swiftcurrent Creek redefine what was at stake from the hindsight of a god

@Zephyr

Helios wishes he hadn't been weak that day Zephyr rushed out of the den. Kavik went after the silver dagger, and he wishes he experienced a proper way to deal with this situation.

Right now, the raven boy is torn. Hurt because Zephyr bit him hard enough he bled, and uncertain why Zephyr went to attack Minnow without warning. But also regretting his own actions, for it would matter less to him if Minnow was the one hurt.

A few days have passed since, and he avoided answering his parents questioning to the injury... gave them excuses that they obviously weren't satisfied with. What bothers him most, however, is Zephyr avoiding him. The cold shoulder given whenever he does manage to spot the youngest of the litter.

Zephyr, Helios says when he finally spotted the sulking pup after searching all this morning.
