Early mornings aren't for everyone

Solaire loved getting up early in the mornings. It was the best time to catch the sunflowers moving as they followed the rising sun and he liked to think that he was giving the plants a nice breakfast as he watered them and put out some of the fertilizer that Aunt Gwyn taught him about. Plus, it meant that he got these chores out of the way before everyone else got up and then he was freed up to do stuff with everyone else! Sometimes his work in the gardens felt a little bit like lonely work whenever Aunt Gwyn was busy doing something else since there were so few wolves in the pack that really enjoyed this kind of thing like he did, but most days it was a nice to have a little bit of quiet time. Of course Dovleac always kept him company, the stoic capybara lingering near by and usually munching on some form of greenery–hopefully not the plants he was cultivating and working on.

By the time he finished his early morning rounds through the Hallows' cultivated gardens and made his way out to the near by plains to do a bit of foraging–with Dovleac at his heels of course–other wolves began to stir and make their way out of the castle. While he was sifting through the grasses near the stream, looking for some of the more wild plants that didn't like to be grown in the green house, he heard some paw steps behind him and a couple voices, pulling his attention away from the plants and up toward Kea with Talyssa hurrying to catch up with him. He hardly ever got any chances to really spend time with his older siblings so of course he was going to jump at the chance to join in on a patrol with them! At least he assumed that's what they were doing since that was the only reason he really saw anyone out here at this hour. Tucking the few plants he had gathered so far into his pack, he turned and trotted over to where Ciaran and Talyssa were chatting, giving them a wide grin. "Hi! Can I come with you too?"
