Duskfire Glacier when the summer dies

A fourth child invited herself onto the scene, late but fashionably so. Wayfarer had initially tagged along after her mother after Veteran opted to respond to the call, stubbornness trumping curiosity, but the latter persisted. She would pause to look over a ruddy shoulder and stare in the direction her brother had gone, often enough that Lane would vanish from sight, which... meant that she should go with Veteran?

She glanced around at the adults present, but her focus was soon solidified on the smallest of cubs. This one she didn't really care about, whose existence she'd barely noticed, but Wayfarer decided she wasn't too thrilled about his proximity to her brothers.

So with her tail flagged and tufted ears thrust forward, the earthen Duskfire moved in close to Tower over the littlest pup. She invaded his space and reached to sniff at his mottled furs, nose roughly shoving at him as she did so.
