The Summer Bonfire Festival (Year 18)

Though most of Juniper's life had been spend out wandering the wild lands of Auster with her family, leading and learning from her father's native nomadic lifestyle, the Hallows always held a certain air of home to her. She had never officially been a member of her extended family's pack like her mother had been, but that didn't mean she didn't feel like family when she was around her half-siblings. They had all been born out on the beach just beyond the high castle walls, after all. They shared blood and bonds. So when the time came for the family to gather to celebrate the annual Bonfire Festival, the young adolescent girl wasn't going to miss out! Juniper had regrouped with her parents and siblings once they arrived at the Hallows, greeting Tamsyn and Kane with affectionate nuzzles before taking her place with her sire while Tam greeted the rest of her children and grandchildren.

While they waited for the bonfire to begin in earnest, June's mint green eyes scanned over the surprising amount of wolves gathered. Many were members of the Hallows, and it was evident the pack had grown much in the year they had been gone from it. Watching Tamsyn interacting with her half-siblings while they sat off to the side, the yearling turned curious eyes up to her dire wolf father with a tilt to her head. "How come you don't go and interact with any of them like Mom does? Do they not like you or something?" she asked her father.
