Give Yourself A Try

Corvus was a yearling now. Somehow, the first few seasons of his life had passed him by far too quickly. He'd spent most of his life thus far preoccupied with playing with his brother and sister, as well as spending time with his parents. The takeover of Abaven had been one notable event, but beyond that his life had been relatively uneventful. He wasn't bothered by that - he'd much rather a peaceful life without disruption than anything else. Still, that didn't stop him from feeling a bit restless, and so he decided to take a stroll on his own. Not far away, of course, but just slightly north to the lake that he'd been to a few times before.

He was grateful for the change in weather brought on by the change in seasons. Today was a crisp spring day, slightly warm with a gentle breeze. The oversized yearling let out a yawn as he veered toward the edge of the lake, paws carrying him lazily over the flat terrain. Once he reached the lakeside he plopped down to his belly and stretched his forepaws out in front of him, sea-green eyes cast out across the still water. What today had in store for him, he had no clue, but he was hopeful that the monotony of everyday life might be interrupted today on his brief trip away from home.
