Moonspear rise 'til we fall

Charon was yet blissfully unaware of Revui's disappearance. Yes, he'd been gone a few days, but he also was known to travel outside of Moonspear. Maybe he had simply gone to scout a bit, and he would return shortly, surely? Perhaps it was denial that made him yet unknown of this fact.. or perhaps the fact that he knew his boy might be lost was what got him denning that day. Ears perked up as he heard Ame's approach, recognising her by her gait, and he looked at her as she posed her question.

The fact that it was early to den was one that he denied, perhaps because it might breach his reality where Revui was not really missing. "I thought I'd get it done early this year." He looked at the hard ground and the small start he had made. "The ground seems harder." But last year the pups had been born in late winter, maybe early spring; so he must have done it timely then, too, when the ground was still hard.
