Heron Lake Plateau Motivation proclamation

Soon, Elwood and Finley would be leaving for Sun Mote Copse to join Wildfire's pack; that had been decided for a few days. That meant it was time to share the news with their children. Elwood thought the hardest part was already over; he would have worried the most about Eljay, and he had been pleasantly surprised to find that the boy had made his own decision to move, independent of his parents' plans. It wouldn't be easy, necessarily, to break the news to @Clover, @Tegan, @Cinder and @Tywyll, but he wasn't as concerned about them as he would have been about his eldest.

He stood in what had been their rendezvous site with @Finley at his side, and after exchanging a quick glance with her, threw his head back and howled for their children -- including @Towhee and @Phox, because they counted and they needed to know, as well.
