Spotted Eagle Mountain And life will always be la vie en rose

With the winter cold settling in, travel became a bit more arduous but it was worth the effort. He felt it was important to keep up with Killdeer, perhaps now more than every since he'd seemed so troubled when Bronco had told him about Teya. He needed to be consistent in his parenting if he wanted to prove to his son that he was still very important, even though Bronco had begun to start another family in Brechelient. 

As he neared the range where he usually called out for his son, he caught a scent that made him freeze in his tracks. He carried on forward once he assessed the wolf's scent, and determined that she smelled of none other than the pack of Mereo. No trace of them. But for her to have settled in Mereo- what were the chances?

His nose was faithful, and he followed his sense of smell until he could spot her, dark against the snow in the distance. Still even this far away, he knew it was her by the telltale glint of her teeth, forever unmasked by those who had caused them both so much harm. His heart shuddered in his chest. He exhaled. 

"It's...You."
