See you in another life (esper death thread)

The pup was somehow led astray from his usual childish games. After exploring some of Abaven's territories, the young boy's nose caught the warm scent of his mother close by. Putting his senses to good use, he decided to track his mother's position like a hunter would with prey. He hoped that when he found her, she could tell him a story or teach him hunting moves.
Never had it occurred to him that it would not be one of those days.
The first thing that his eyes spotted was the blood dripping from his mother's nostrils and lips and her dull, lifeless gaze. She looked like she was in pain. This wasn't how she normally looked, was it? She looked sick! He rushed over to the ebony woman in complete worry and astonishment.
"What's wrong, mama?" He demanded with a squeal. "Are you sick? I can get a healer!"
He frantically looked around for other wolves to come help, but he seemed to be the only one. He couldn't save her on his own. Wasn't anyone going to aid his mother? Surely, someone had to show up.
