Eager paws would lead him forward, though he was careful not to let them carry him too far ahead. His mother was no elder but he didn?t want her to feel like she needed to rush for his sake. It was a little sad to think but... He was the only one of his litter that was still hanging around Mercianne and the remainder of the Snow Rouges. In his dreams, though he hadn?t spoken to his mother about it, he would often dream of them all together... Him, his brothers, his sister, and his mother. Even a father... Though he didn?t really have an image of him in his mind... So he never remembered what he looked like in the dreams.

It... Was sad... Thinking how separated they all were now. His twin brothers had long since disappeared... They wandered off sometime not long after Kestrel disappeared, the frantic search for his sister starting. Though they hadn?t found her, though he couldn?t explain why, Emery knew, somehow, she was still out there and okay. Someday... She would find them again. Would they ever be a true family again? Perhaps not in the same way... But he was going to work hard and stay with his mother and Knight, following the path they chose. He didn?t mind following in their pawsteps. In his own way he still had his own path he was following... He was admittedly still just... Clinging to his childhood.

It made him wonder about Sage and Clover. Both had joined a pack, finding something to do with themselves in a new sort of life. Emery wasn?t in a hurry to prove himself to anyone. He would do things at his own pace, and if some day he was recognized for it then great! If not, well, he wasn?t trying to impress anyone with some sort of talent. He was merely living life to his best ability, enjoying what skills he did possess and sharing in the company of those he cared about. That was what made today so special. Sure it was something so simple... And yet, to the yearling, just a short while of his mother?s time meant the world to him.

His tail would wag excitedly as his mother spoke. Her words were encouraging, and the boy responded with that same eagerness. ?No problem!? He was confident, though not overly so. He was also thrilled that his mother supported his decision to take this path, rather a more warrior based or healer based one. While he wanted to learn to fight better, and know self defense in case he needed it, he didn?t want to drill himself in it and make that his main focus. On the other hand, while he knew the importance of herbs, well, they just didn?t catch his attention all that much. It was hard for him to memorize the different plants and their uses... But every wolf had a purpose and all skills were valuable.

The young male would take a breath, letting a little chuckle. ?Sorry... I?m just really happy we?re doing this together.? He was trying to calm himself down some so he didn?t make a careless mistake, working on remembering the things that Galahad had taught him about hunting. ?Oh! We need to go off this way for a little while. That way we can avoid most of the drop offs.? The snowy area hid them rather well... And he didn?t want to risk having his mother fall into one since he wasn?t sure how much she explored the territory.

So Emery would wander off more to the west, looking to his mother again as he smiled brightly. ?It is up to you what we hunt. There is a caribou herd that was up this way. They had a couple calves in their herd... We might be able to bring one down.? He hadn?t really seen Merci hunt for herself before so he wasn?t sure how skilled his mother was at it, or if she felt like that was an appropriate prey. He had brought one of the calves down already with Galahad, eating some with the other brute before helping him bring it back to his den with Oracle so the other fae could eat her fill. He was sure eventually he?d be able to bring down older game but... With animals of that size he wanted to make sure there were enough wolves to ensure a successful hunt.
