The shaved wolf returns

*Naiche* · 11-29-2020, 04:31 PM

Naiche had felt relief at first when Pan had woken up, seeing that while the Pangolin was banged up he didn’t seem near as bad as Naiche imagined. The sense of relief over Pan was now twisting to a sinking sensation in his stomach at reaching the armada border. It would be good to be home, but he already imagined some of the jokes one or two wolves might make over the change in his appearance.

Naiche had gotten a better look in some water at his sheared his fur had become. He wasn’t bald per se, but looked more like all his dense and longer furs had been removed by some horrible shave job. There were a few extra thin patches where red angry skin could be seen from his worse moments. The areas around his shoulders and rear seemed to have had the worst of it where his head and under his neck seemed to be close to normal.

The fur felt even worse than Naiche’s realization he truly was shorter now. Short should matter more in a fight right? It didn’t hamper his pride as much though, he was still taller than some who did just fine after all. Who would believe his crazy story of how it had happened? There was no denying it though, the comparable height between the pangolin confirmed. Sure, Pan could still easily ride on him but the pangolin was able to reach up a bit higher to start climbing on Naiche than he used to.

Naiche was also scraped, bruised, and cut up in places but that seemed the most minor detail of all. The wounds wouldn’t stop him from being able to fight and that was all that mattered to Naiche. Stepping on pack land he prayed whatever wolves he met first were not the ones who would jump to mocking first thing.
