Blacktail Deer Plateau A little lair for a very small bear

By the time he reached even ground and let go, Peregrine had decided he wouldn't partake after all, though he would happily call his pack mates to come feast. As it turned out, he needn't call them, for they came of their own accord. The two wolves that arrived were not familiar to the Alpha male, which he hoped to remedy right this instant.

"The only help I need is help eating this," he replied to the older male, gesturing at the dead bear cub. He glanced to Finley, then added, "I'm Peregrine, the Alpha male. I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to meet you sooner. It's been a difficult time for us on the plateau." A pause, then, "Help yourselves, Finley and...?" His dusky eyes fixed on the old timer's face, waiting patiently for a name.
