At times, Starling was proven to be a rather light sleeper. It was perhaps due to his restlessness. It was not so much that he was overly energetic, or even overly protective of his siblings. He really wasn't the big ball of energy some of his siblings were, but he did have his moments. Yet he rested often, sleeping as much as his body needed to to grow and sustain his energy, even if it was light often. He felt her kiss on his head, as he did quite often, before she slipped from the den. With a gentle sigh he lifted his head, tilting it ever so slightly as he watched her retreated from the den. "Mom?" He said so softly before carefully lifting onto his paws and stepping around his siblings. His steps were light, even as he stumbled slightly with his large paws, as he followed after her. As he emerged from the shadows of the den into the stunning light of the sunset, his breath caught in his throat. Eyes grew slightly wider as he stepped towards his mother and moved to sit at her side. "It's beautiful.." He breathed so lightly before turning his head to look up at Wren with a gentle grin on his lips. "Why'd you leave, mom?" He asked softly, though he felt he knew. The den was getting rather stiffling with all the growing bodies, even he felt a little antsy to get out into something bigger, but he was also so terrified of the wideness of the world.
