Moonspear the harvest

Alya did not feel the same right to Jarilo's children as she did to Hydra's, nor the same sort of pull. But they were still her niece and nephew, and honestly, she loved any pup, no matter their parentage. So she'd taken it upon herself to hunt a snow-white grouse from the neighboring valley and hike herself over to @Kukutux's den.

She could hear fussing already from inside; Alya announced herself with a quiet, friendly chuff and nosed the grouse closer to the den's dark maw.

"It's Alya," she called, her voice quiet and gentle. "I brought some food."
