Ouroboros Spine New year, New opportunities

Leaving Sumac's place in all of this vague. @Silvertip, @Angel Oak, @Pine @Ponderosa, feel free to chime in when you feel like it. @Kukutux, @Vaire @Aiolos and others. We come in peace. :D No need to make this priority.

The trek had been challenging, but Raindrop had experience with scaling mountains, as she had when she was wandering as a loner, almost a year ago. Oh, how time had changed so much in her life, for better or worse. She had made connections, found love, joined a pack, and created a family. She had been successful, in more ways than one, and she was grateful for everything she had been given.

But, it had come time to make yet another change. A new year meant new opportunities. And it was with hope, excitement, and worry, that she climbed the mountain, and descended into the spine. She was originally of Moontide, therefore had no need to wait outside the borders, even though pressing on into the territory felt strange, and almost awkward. 

Behind her, her children followed. She would occasionally walk behind them, for safety, but then continued ahead of them, walking along a path that must have seen many paws over many years.

Soon, they reached the edges of the camp, and she stopped, "We are here, children." She announced with a tired smile, setting down the bundles she had carried for Rodyn. "You may explore more if we are welcomed as members of the pack. "So for now, just stay close." She then called out for the leadership, and waited patiently.
