In the mushroom light

It wasn't too often that he went out on his own to explore or adventure, but something just got into him today and he wanted to stretch his legs. It felt like his small piece of family was in a moment of limbo. The initial pain of losing his father and pack had subsided and now he needed to figure out where to go from here. He didn't go far from the range since he didn't like to leave his mother for long periods of time, but he felt far enough away to convince himself that he had actually gone on a little trip of sorts. He happened to see a cave of some kind as he was passing by and he paused to look at it curiously. He hoped that his curiosity wouldn't lead him into trouble, but he followed it either way and moved closer to the cave. He was careful as he slipped into the darkness, letting his eyes adjust to the darkness as he carefully walked down the incline further into the underground structure. For a moment he thought that what had seemed like a cave had actually been a tunnel of some kind as the glow in the distance became more apparent, but the light didn't seem like sunlight. As he got closer he noticed the blueish hue the light held and he felt the change from rock to moss under his paws. His brows lifted with surprise when he got close enough to realize that the light was coming from the mushrooms that lined the walls of the cavern. He paused and looked around in a mix of awe and confusion. The whole way down into the caves he tried to take note of any scents of near by wolves, but it was hard to distinguish them over the scents of the damp moss and cool, stale air of the cave. |
