Kai couldn't help but feel a bit bad that he hadn't been able to tell what sort of animal was, but he knew he was young and he couldn't know everything. Being blissfully ignorant, but simply not knowing everything was another. Kai was not so naive to think he knew much at all - there was so much of the world he had yet to explore, and so many wolves he hoped to meet someday.
He nodded at her words, happy to take whatever lesson she wanted to impart on him. The boy watched as she carefully lifted one of the quills, and he narrowed his eyes as he examined it. If these creatures were covered in those spines, that would definitely hurt to try to take down. But she explained you have to get them on their backs first before finishing them off. All he could picture was those quills sticking in his snout, and he cringed. "Super weird, but okay!" Kai beamed gladly, tail wagging. "I'd love to join you." Hoping she would lead the way, he let his head fall back to the ground to grab on to the scent that he'd already caught and hopefully trail after it.
