Nova Peak Black Dragon

They continued to watch Sunset speculatively, still processing the fact of the ambush as the two youngsters squared up for a playful spar. The Caru took a few steps backward to give them more space, drawing in a breath before dropping to their haunches to watch.

They hadn’t found anything to track, much less hunt, so it could wait. In the meantime, Masquerade would not miss an opportunity to assess the young wolves in their charge. Sure, it was a fun past time for them, a good way to work out youthful energy, but it was also a way to sharpen important life skills.

And though this scenario was hardly new, their mind must still be tuned to the future. For the very first time, Masquerade wondered if these two might make a strong pairing someday. Perhaps the Caru was looking at the future leadership of the rise… or, even better, the Alpha pair of Dragon’s Back Ridge?

You two are more than welcome to skip Masque and me for a few rounds while they tussle. :)
