Here's To A New Beginning

He had been wandering for...a while. His life was practically in a fog, advancing nowhere, and time just kept passing him by faster than he thought. Before he knew it, he had grown old. Much older than he remembered being, but that was a given, right? Nothing stayed young, after all. He swore it wasn't all that long ago he felt like he was just maybe a couple of years old. But ah...that was a long time ago now. He was eight. Nearing another birthday come Summer...and he wasn't sure how to feel about it. He had no children of his own. Had been taking care of his nephew for a time before Finan decided to strike out on his own. And that left the monochromatic male alone once more, and so he just wandered without purpose. Without direction. Lost. Tired.

He had nearly stepped across the borders he didn't realize were there until he heard a warning cry from his companion that flew above caused Cloud to abruptly stop and take stock of his surroundings. The Osprey had seen someone in the distance, and when Cloud realized where he was, he also came to the realization that there were newer border markers here. How long had this been here? He knew there had been a pack in these parts before, but they had been gone for some time...and it seemed someone else had decided to take up residence. But who?
