The Summer Bonfire Festival (Year 20)

If it wasn't for Dovleac getting into something he shouldn't have Solaire probably would have gotten to the bonfire early, but because he had to spend some time cleaning up the mess and scolding his friend for breaking into the greenhouse to eat some of the vegetables he was trying to cultivate he was going to almost be late! He hurried out to where everyone was already gathered around the bonfire with soil and bits of leaves clinging to his paws and forelegs and then tried his best to stay out of sight of his mother. He knew that if she saw him coming to a pack function this dirty he was going to be in so much trouble. Luckily, the crowd of wolves was so dense that he was able to skirt around behind most of them and keep his legs at least out of sight. He couldn't get up close like a lot of his other siblings, but that was okay! He just wanted to hear his dad talk and see the fire be lit and then he could go back to fixing the garden and get cleaned up. Who knew, maybe he'd make it back in time to mingle a little before everyone left if he was lucky!
