Marvelous misadventure

It was another warm summer day in Auster, typical weather for the season. Sunshine, only mild humidity, sparse fluffy clouds dotting a blue sky. A lovely day to be spent outdoors. Artorias was out roaming the perimeter of the Grove, ensuring it remained safe and predator (and Raider) free while his family went about picking the ripe fruits from the trees and bushes. His companions were further back, keeping an eye on the youngest pups while he kept an eye out for threats. These dog days of summer did remind Artorias of a simpler time in his life, when he was able to freely roam and explore, back before everything got complicated. He'd need to find time to go on another adventure again sometime soon.
