Ocean's Breath Plateau primeval

Rolayne was still complaining. He had no memory of this place, and he didn't want to be here. Everyone he knew was back at Moonspear; that was his home. This place smelled weird and he didn't know anyone here. His cousins would leave in a matter of days, along with the only mother he had known. 

He was irritated, and snapped at the air when Maggak's nudge his hind end into a higher gear. She could be such an irritating turd sometimes. But, that didn't mean he didn't want her near. He wanted them to stay or for all of them to go back together. 

He was saddled up to Sialuk's side now, not wanting to be away from her. He was deeply close to his Dad, but right now he wasn't at risk of losing him. He knew the story of his real Mom, how she died after giving birth to him and his brother. He knew the songs would be for her. But, his mourning would start the moment Sialuk left. He looked up at her with big, sad yellow eyes.
