Do you believe in a higher power?

Corbin watched his mom closely as she continued the lesson.  He was trying to soak it all in but there was so much some of it just wouldn’t stick!  It sounded like there was no point in holding his breath to get some cool wings or anything like that from the divine.  So what did he get from them?  What might get later?  Ok, so maybe his attention was wandering a bit as he imagined these things.

Walking among the stars caught the boy's attention though, eyes widening as he tried to imagine it.  Well, after hearing about the stars his attention really was wandering off on its own again!  The night sky didn’t look like there was much there to keep one's interest long for roaming.  It would be fun at first and he’d love to charge up there right now to check it out!  Still, he’d want to come back home.  Corbin imagined the blackness of space with just stars and the moon to roam about.  No rocs, trees, caves, mud, water puddles, or anything like that as far as he could tell.  Did the wolves up there listen a lot cause they’d get bored roaming the same sort of landscape?

All the talk of divine kids went in one ear and out the other.  The boy's attention caught on Alex though when he mentioned Corbin being lord of sheep.  A broad grin is given to Alex with a firm nod, “Right! Sheep Lord!” Foolish wolves might not realize how impressive a title it was but once Corbin would knock them to the ground they’d sure learn better.

“Tag!” Corbin yipped happily at the thought, instantly choosing the game that had more running and less staying still to hide.  “Lucette’s it!  Let's go,” the boy was standing, tail wagging before thinking to turn his head to mom, “can we go? Pleeeease?”
