Farewell to the Shadows

I hope it's okay I assumed that Cicero tagged along with Meldresi here :-)

When the howl sounded, Cicero did not instantly recognise it as Kove, but his interest was piqued nevertheless. The pup had followed his mother, whether she wanted to or not. When he found out that it was Kove, the toy that went along well with all of Cicero's games, that had howled, well, his excitement only doubled. Little did he know that he was about to be disappointed by the reason of his toy's call.

Cicero was happily trotting alongside his mother, but when he saw the white form of Kove through the Woods, the boy cheered a happy "Yay!" and clumsily galloped up to his toy. He licked the underside of Kove's chin while his tail wagged excitedly. "Sees found toy!" Cicero looked over his shoulder to see if his mother was following. "Sees-roh yaaaaa-haaaay!" he then sang happily while his tail propellored happily at the reunion with his toy.
