Sun Mote Copse words of wisdom

@Fennec had been gone for a bit now, and Eljay wasn't too sure where she was at. He remembered she'd gone to visit Meerkat and Bronco, but since then she hadn't been back and he could not help but wonder if she was sticking around for a bit. There was a worry in his heart that she might stay out there; since @Weejay said that maybe they should go, Eljay thought that he would make sure that Fennec knew enough of what he knew before he felt that he left the pack in competent paws. He might not have been worried if it wasn't for Niamh and Fennec's fight; maybe if they got along better, he would not be so worried that maybe Fennec needed a place where she could be respected without having the feeling she needed to fight for it. It was understandable if that was the case; but at the same time, it meant that he wouldn't feel in good conscience to leave here.

It left him torn and unsure how to proceed with what he wanted from life. He'd made peace with the thought of leaving Wiffle's Copse behind and many good memories that he had had here. He'd never been so self-confident and happy as he had been in those fleeting months with Wildfire, and ever since it felt as though he'd been chasing the hollow shells of that dream. He loved his children and he loved that he still had Weejay here, but where was life taking him? And was it really a good idea to leave? Where would they even go?

Eljay sat quietly by Wiffle's grave, where her body was buried (or so he thought, anyway). If only she was here to share her gentle wisdom and courage with him. I miss you, Eljay murmured under his breath. But despite missing her, at least the raw edge was off his pain now, and he felt like he wanted to live again these days.
