Duskfire Glacier a dog can smell a lie you know

this is mainly for the parents (@Rye) but other parents and puppies in the Caverns would be welcome! (@Wintersbane, @Tzila, @Arius, @Ensio, @Lane / Veteran, @Wayfarer). Developmental stage: about 2 wks/6 human months (eyes are open, milk teeth are coming in, eats regurgitated meat, etc etc.)

When he woke that morning, Sikuliak was again faced with change and new things to learn. 

The sunlight filtered in dimly, warm and red on his eyelids but on this particular morn, when the beams played against his face and roused him from his place where he was tucked between his father's cinnamon forelegs, the lids seamlessly slid apart and revealed to him a whole new world -- albeit a blurry and startling one. 

This revelation caused the pup's murky eyes of blue to widen comically, inky lips going slack in a slight expression of shock -- eyes following the flecks of golden dust as their motes twisted in the air, as best he could at his age anyways. After a moment, a soft noise escaped the boy and he wobbled onto unsteady feet.

Shakily, he tiptoed his way from his parents' slumbering sides and towards the light at the threshold of the den -- picking up surprising speed despite how he stumbled and tripped clumsily as he made his great escape.
