and they rose with voices ringing (Tinaro)
Already, he seemed to take a liking to the child, who greeted him back and exchanged a name. Tordo, the pup went by, quite similar to the adult's own name with the same starting and finishing sound. He couldn't help but to comment on it cheerily. "Well, my name's Tinaro. Nice to meet ya Tordo!" Somewhere inside of him, he felt a pang of jealousy. This boy was must likely one of Bass' newest litter, which meant he would grow up surrounded by many family members. If only Tinaro could have lived that life; the thought made him feel empty and hollow inside, like as if he hadn't had a normal childhood.
However, he pushed those plaguing thoughts aside. Why waste time sulking and thinking 'If this' and 'If that'? In fact, he was determined to ensure every pup in Abaven grew up with family and loved ones, even if that meant befriending a few. No child wanted to lose their entire family - the meaning of their life. "Hey, our names both start with T! You know what? I think wolves whose names start with T are awesome wolves," he exclaimed with an encouraging smile, gently nudging the boy's shoulder.
