Great Bear Wilderness Autumn arrived in colorful hues

Rodyn had not yet learned the dangers of the mountain. Though despite his limitations he was aware it was dangerous. It made him curious yet wary. And it was beautiful, he had not misspoke.

Ro tilted his ears forward. He wasn't certain of what she spoke of, but clearly it meant a lot to her. These spirits.

Your mother told me you were starting a pack there and your auntie in the forest? His own accent came out full bodied and warm.

Rodyn gace a soft laugh. My first breath was between the ground and a tree. Sounds like it's a special place. Mama birthed all of us beneath that tree. And I imagine she'll continue.

He looked back to the mountain. Sometimes home calls us and holds on tight.
