His mother was nowhere to be found when the young boy awoke that morning. A little more adventurous than he previously was, Sorrel would find himself setting off to find her. There would be no sign of her, though Spring would introduce him to a plant he had never seen before, it's scents and looks ever so interesting. He wouldn't touch it in case it was poisonous though would try to recall it's exact location so that he could bring his mother back to it, an excuse for a lesson really more than anything else.
It wasn't his mother that he would come across first however, but his cousin Novel. The elder girl had such a knowledge of healing that Sorrel was somewhat envious if he was entirely honest. Outside of his immediate family, she was certainly the wolf he was closest to and her help would do just as well. He would question her about the plant though before she could answer a call would sound from his grandparents, marking a pack meeting. A member of Ludicael now he needed to attend these things though the boy wasn't too keen on that fact.
Novel would blackmail him into accompanying her. Whilst in such a crowd he still would have preferred his mother, he daren't go to these things alone and so would take his cousin up on her deal, following her to the meeting. Sadly there still weren't many that had arrived, he preferred to slip in quietly and whilst none would stare at him, he still felt uncomfortable, perhaps it was simply the knowledge that he would now need to wait here longer. At least he wasn't the first to appear though, he would hate that even more. With his parents and siblings still not present, Sorrel would silently sit beside Novel, perhaps as others arrived he would seek a space away from her though for now he would remain in her company.
