He had returned at the worst possible time, for Swiftcurrent suffered. There'd been a lot for Viinturuth to take in - too much to fully comprehend, for he did not know those involved - but he chose to withdraw for a time while the pack re-grouped and made sense of recent turmoil. It was not his grief to carry, yet he felt it all the same as he trailed his way quietly to the nearby Emberwood.
They'd hunted there a long time ago, had they not? He couldn't recall the finer details of what animal they'd tracked there or if he and his kin had been successful, but the woods were familiar to him as he picked his way along deer tracks. The afternoon was pleasantly warm and he appreciated the shade from the sun beneath leafy branches, the shift of the Summertime breeze on his face.
Things would get better for his brother. They always did. Viinturuth was certain he'd do everything in his power to remind him how to breathe.
