Leave me be

As much as the male enjoyed the lands his mother had claimed for the pack, the valley and the lake got old rather quick. Patrolling it daily wasn't exactly giving him the same sense of wonderment he had about the territories as when he was a kid. He hadn't explored much of the west yet so he'd set off from pack lands to go see if he could find anything worth exploring.

What he hadn't really remembered was that most of the lands in the west contained the damn desert. While there were some interesting things to explore in some areas, ones like this one were just downright boring. He could have easily found a cave somewhere else, but instead he'd stupidly just traveled towards the dunes thinking that maybe, just maybe, there might be something worth seeing.

Nope.

Dunes, dunes, and oh look, more dunes. Sand had worked itself in between his toes and he was glad his pelt wasn't overly long either or else he knew he would have had a hell of a time getting it out of his fur. He was just getting ready to turn around and go home when he spotted a figure collapsed in the sand. Curiosity, mixed with his already helpful nature, drove him forward and as he got closer he realized it was a female wolf. What was she doing way out here?

"Miss, are you okay?"

"Speech"
