Mountain Play

Chade and Ry hadn’t gone on an adventure together in what felt like forever and forever to the boys was currently a matter of months.  They had spent a good portion of their life alone and wondered if they’d survive every day.  Then Manea had let them join the pack and everything had changed.  There had been so much pain and fear before but there had been good times.  The two boys had been discovering themselves, growing confident, and training in their different areas of expertise.

Chade actually missed spending time roaming with his brother, albeit he didn’t mention the scared part but just the closeness the two had in those days.  Thus he had presented the idea to Ricin of going on an adventure together.  Unlike when they were small the two could now stand up for themselves against whatever happened.  They didn’t need to fear predators, instead, the predators should fear them.

Chade leads Ry to Fenrir’s mountain and directly to his favorite path, “This way is the best for getting up a while quickly.  There’s a good point about a mile up where lots of paths converge, and if you go down the west path I haven’t fully explored its paths so I figure we go that way and see what there is.  You can lead, you are the real explorer after all.  I come to hunt or fight things and sliding on the ice is fun.” Chade gave his brother a wicked grin, “Just don’t fall off when we get up there! It’s a long drop with lots of bumps going down.”
