Verdigris Ravine Clan

Tiny bit of PP on my part for Zoug, lmk if I have to change it.

S'ari dragged her pregnant self to the opening of Candle's birthing den and poked her head inside, after making sure that Zoug wouldn't bite her head off. She went no farther than that, for no mother with pups just born would allow anyone close, not even a trusted friend. The smell of blood and amniotic fluid filled her nose, but underneath was the smell of four little sunlings. They smelled of life.

Well done, S'ari told her friend, then she pulled her head out of the den and let out a ululation of joy, howling to the sky, to the sun and moon, to the Desert Herself. And soon, her own pups would be born.
