Wapun Meadow Waking Up to the Unknown

The male's ceaseless, curiosity-driven wanderings lead him to a sprawling meadow dotted with flowers, sprouting from the fertile spring's bounteous fair weather. Malik stopped in place and took a deep breath of the sweet scents of honeysuckle and fresh grass, the cool breeze rustling his thick mane of fur - all he needed was the warm sun on his face, and it would be perfect, but the clouds were dominating the sky, partially covering the sun. Still, it was a beautiful day, Malik couldn't ask for more.

He lowered his nose as he padded through the grass, tasting the different scents as he walked. Lots of prey animals traversed this ground - hares and deer. The thought of fresh prey made Malik's stomach growl, and he cursed himself for having so much wanderlust that he forgot to feed himself. How on earth was he going to find food? He stopped, and looked around, as if expecting to find something to eat on the horizon, but he saw nothing... Only grass and meadow blossoms for miles -

Oh, there was a white lump. That's odd... The snow should've melted by now. Malik moved closer to it out of curiosity, and flinched when the lump moved, the familiar scent of his own kind wafting towards him, awakening his tail to wag excitedly.

"He - Hey!" Malik barked out in an enthusiastic greeting, ecstatic to see another wolf. "Hey there!"
