Redtail Rise the coliseum

Over the past week or so, Ashlar had managed to branch out and explore a fair portion of the surrounding lands. A lot of it he used to gather plants, but with winter, there wasn't much to find. It was lucky that he'd stayed with Gannet through the cold seasons and the warm. Ashlar knew a few tricks now, even with limited resources. Gathering had always been a game he and Baba had played, even when he was very young.

He was on the rise, thankfully, when Avicus' call rang out urgently. Ashlar might have feared that something happened, but she called another wolf as well. He had not really met her fellow packmate (his as well, now?) and he did not know what to expect. But while the butterflies danced a nervous dance in his stomach, he came eagerly to his friend's summons.

She wasn't happy. His smile died out, replaced with concern and a low, gentle wag of his tail.
