Lost Creek Hollow You ever wonder why we're here?

Although Breccan heard Treason's calls and deciphered the note of urgency in her tone, he didn't expect that he would be the one to help her out. But he happened to be nearby, and when he almost quite literally stumbled across a small black-and-white puppy in his path (luckily, he drew up short just in time to keep from toppling over the little obstacle), he paused and put two and two together. The pup was whimpering and visibly upset, and Breccan suspected he had perhaps wandered a little farther from the den than he had meant to -- thus Treason's anxiety and the little boy's teary expression.

"What are you doing out here by yourself?" he asked as he lowered himself to speak to the puppy. As another one of Treason's cries sounded, he howled a short response to let her know that her missing child was under (almost-)adult supervision. But he didn't know if the Alpha's son would accept guidance from a veritable stranger, and therefore wasn't sure how long it would take to coax him back home.
