Pale Spring Sun (TRADE FAIR)

He'd hardly been in Aerie a few weeks and already there was a whole FESTIVAL, Deus had very quickly decided that life was amazing. There were so many wolves everywhere and a million new sights and sounds. It seemed like each wolf had with them a hundred things he'd never seen before and while his mother busied herself readying her own trade goods he took it upon himself to explore.

The pup was keenly aware that he had eyes on him and whether it was the puppies, his uncles, his mother or his father it didn't really matter in the end. He'd not stray too far outside a supervising adult's vision, Deus was too conscious of the kind of pup he wanted to be and it was not the kind who worried his family unnecessarily. He wore a wide grin as he trotted beneath the many large legs, only pausing when he saw another cluster of puppies with their parents.

They were the first wolf puppies he'd met aside from his sister and Deus couldn't resist but torpedoing towards them, skidding to a stop just short of the family and nearly collapsing onto his face as his puppy weight fought to unbalance him. "Hi! Hi! Hi! I'm Deus!" An over-excited greeting was given to each pup in turn, his tail wagging so hard that it wiggled his rear end through the air with it.
