Being locked away was starting to get more difficult for him, or was it just the sickness? He was still taken care of, Siren had re-wrapped his paw as needed, he still received everything he would have if he was outside on the island. But he almost felt stir crazy which was so unlike him. He spent a lot of his days just quietly relaxing with Siren or his siblings, so why was he so on edge here?

He jolted to the sound of Viper banging around in her own cell, out of view from the children. He could often hear her paws pacing along the cell floors or her thick breath from the ooze and he wondered if she had ever slept. Looking down at the wrap that Siren had snugly around his leg, his other paw kept messing with it like a nervous tick until the wrap had come undone to reveal the glowing insides of his body. He wondered if it was the herbs that made him sick now, and somehow he infected everyone else in the pack that was sick. After all, Viper didn't go around the others much so that would make sense to him. But he somehow felt like that wasn't entirely ideal. Many more things were infected by the mysterious changes that the previous winter had brought them. It had to be something in the air, he couldn't say for sure.
