"Kee!" Julius excitedly yipped as Relonikiv stood at the entrance next to him. "Ossa Kee! Ossa!" He exclaimed, using Relonikiv's babbled word as he took a few steps past the entrance, and into the outside world.

While the scents of outside leaked into the den, the scent of his family smothered it. Outside, there wasn't the strong, ever-present scent of his siblings and mom to muffle it. But, 'Outside' - as it was a specific place in Julius's mind - consisted of a lot of different smells. Julius had smelled a lot of them before on wolves who came into the den, as well as sitting by the entrance and his other few romps outside. But, the majority and the strength of the smells never ceased to amaze him. He stuck his nose to the ground, trying to take them all in at once.
