Redsand Canyon When will the bass drop?

Killdeer's acceptance to the auxilia was immediate, unlike Mulberry's, despite the pups' similarity in age. How curious. Ruenna wondered if this was reflective of their differing sexes, or whether it had more to do with the higher level of trust afforded to Killdeer, given that his grandmother and aunt were here to vouch for him. 

Ruenna would not ruminate too long over this. She was certain that when she and Germanicus found themselves alone, he would explain his thinking. 

Killdeer asked about Towhee, and Ruenna smiled. "I'll show you. Welcome to Mereo, auxilia." Fondness and pride were evident upon her features. 

She would lead Killdeer off to the soldier's quarters and show him the den called 1A, where they were likely to find Towhee.
