Let me see the truth

The call would find him within the relative comfort of his den. With the soft sun gentle against his entryway, warming to his shelter it was oddly difficult to rouse himself and rise to his paws. He tilted his head, listening as the last remnants of the howl would die out around him. He was certain that the caller was Friction, but his last listen to the call gave him little to go on for its reason. For a heart wrenching moment he thought it might be bad news of Erion, and without a second thought he was gone from his den and into the light of day.


Even as he raced against the territory his foggy, early morning brain got to working. No, the call haden't sounded urgent or sad, at least what he had heard of it didn't. There where other reasons Friction might call him, after all he had agreed to apprentice Alpine in healing. He would calm a little and slow as he approached, and as he finished the steps into view he would see also that Friction was not alone. His last ounce of worry dissipated as he saw in intent in Friciton's eyes, this was a healing lesson and nothing to do with the state of Erion. He offered a smile to the girl that had also joined them. He was surprised that on a second intake he realised he recognised her, they had run into each other before and he found himself blushing, he hadn't been in a good state of mind at the time. All the same, his smile to her was warm as he inclined his head her way and stepped closer to Friction. ?Friction! It's good to see you, how is Erion fairing?? it was still hard to fully let go of any worries he might harbour for that bright pup.
