Your new life

It was difficult keeping up with his long strides, but she did her best. Whenever he glanced back, she would pick up her pace to stick close by. Feeling more exhausted by the minute, she wondered how far they were really going. Trying her best to ignore the ache in her belly and paws, the young girl was suddenly amazed when they approached a different area.

Gone was the forest that gave way to a mountainous valley full of warrens. When he introduced it as the Col, her mouth opened in awe. No sound came out, but she did her best with a quiet coo sort of noise. Pausing as he told her to wait, she continued to look around the area as he disappeared into the shadows. This place was absolutely massive and reeked of so many different wolves. How many did he have in his pack?

Upon his return, she stood at attention as best as she could in her withered state. Turning quickly to follow him to the Obelisk, she looked to him when he asked if she could read. Her chin turns down to the necklace as her paw picks it up to hold it out to him. When she lets go and it thumps against her chest, she shrugs and shakes her head as if to say ‘I can’t, but this necklace means I had at some point.’ Unsure if he’ll understand what she means, she shakes her head no one more time to make sure she’s clear.
