Foundation of the Future

It seemed like they had created their own little enclosed pack, but one only of family. Amarant was normally very brave and fearless, but for each step he took he raised his paw slowly after. He was very unsure of this new environment, but it was only so frightening because this would be claimed as his new home; he didn't understand yet. His eyes were wide, but still gentle and he couldn't help but smile back to his mother who had placed tiny kisses upon her children. His tail wagged little as he looked to her matching optics, but stopped as he continued to follow his uncle and cousins.

The thought of why he only had Koray as a brother, where Eirik seemed to have a hundred. But in reality, Rune only had three children, maybe the fact that those children had a complete family, a mother and a father, is what made their side look so large to Amarant. And for the most part, Maia didn't go out much or have friends come and see her. Amarant was still too young to really notice the lack of a father, the lack of a Maverick. If only he knew of how large the other side was, it would make him seem like the bigger brute.

As they caught up to the others, Amarant waited for Maia to settle before leaning up against the outside of her left leg. His thoughts stayed upon Uncle Rune and didn't speak a word. If his mother or Koray or any of the other family were trying to speak to him, he was tuned out. Only Uncle Rune's voice would sooth his mind.
