Swiftcurrent Creek when the outside temperature rises

There was a hundred yard stare to the boys gaze and it gave Arric the willies honestly. He made a mental note to talk to Akavir about the boy. There was obviously something wrong whether it was grief or anger or both he wasn't sure, but he did know that it needed taken care of before it was too late.

He grimaced inside, because he knew it would be a shitty conversation and Akavir may very well get pissed off. But who wouldn't. YOu didn't necessarily want to hear that your child wasn't handling things healthily. 

Arric watched him go and settled outside the den mouth. He wouldn't bother the boy inside, as this seemed like something he didn't want anyone to be near, but he'd stay in case the youth decided maybe he wanted him.
