Getting to go out to explore was very new to the newest Destruction children and the curious little Dutiron had already found himself out once more. Alone again today he still kept close to the den, although this time he was actually allowed to go outside he still didn't feel like getting lost and kept glancing back over his shoulder to check and see whether or not he could still see the den, at the very least the pathway that led to it. He had quickly learnt to pause when doing this, so not to stumble and fall over as he had already done a couple of times. He still wasn't entirely sure what to do alone outside, though a little less nervous this time he set about investigating the area a little more, nose moving across the ground as he sniffed at anything that was interesting, which meant pretty much anything for one so young, eager to explore and learn about the world. There wasn't anyone around to ask about certain things though, and so he was left not being able to identify some things. The strange thing on the floor for example; it was hollow, broken and incredibly dainty. He realised the latter as he broke it a little more with his sniffing and quickly retracted his nose a little guiltily after that. A small piece of the egg shell left stuck to it, unbeknownst to the pup, a little worried he may have done something wrong.

The girl had grown a little less cautious of the pups and her old den. She still didn?t seek it out but she no longer felt the need to put as much distance between her and it as she had before. She had seen the pups already and though she still avoided them a part of her couldn?t stop thinking about them. Even from the distance she had seen of them they had seemed cute? She shook her head and chuckled. She slowed some, noticing her path was taking her closer to the den and she was considering taking a wide turn around it when she saw a small figure moving about the brush.
She guessed it was one of her new siblings, they were still the most present of the pups currently in Ludicael, though the red woman?s own brood were starting to wander about now too. Hesitating for a moment she watched him root around at something on the ground. Sighing she gave in and wandered closer to him, just at least to make sure that he wasn?t getting into anything he shouldn?t. A shattered egg lay at his paws, it?s shell scattered around him and even a bit of it stuck to his nose.

Unable to find any words to speak to her younger brother she gave a low huffy bark to alert him to her presence.

Dutiron was quite preoccupied with his egg shell problem. Still he wasn't sure what the delicate thing was though he didn't think that he should have broken it. He had a lot to learn about good and bad still, but this shattered thing at his paws didn't seem to be all that good. Of course he wasn't aware of the nest above him where a baby bird had been quite glad to break it's way out and welcome the world a few days earlier and now awaited it's mother's return with noisy chirps eager for food. He didn't bother with the sound of the chick though, instead the bark catching his attention and making him jump slightly. Turning around he did his best to stand in front of the broken egg, still unaware of the piece stuck to his nose. "Umm... Hello." Everyone he had met so far in his life had visited him previously whilst he had been in the den with his mother and siblings. Something about this wolf seemed somewhat familiar, but he didn't know her and given the entire situation wasn't really sure what to do.

His reaction seemed a bit amusing to the older Destruction girl, a soft chuckle just barely escaping ebony lips. He offered her a hesitant greeting and a small reassuring smile spread across her features. ?Hello.? She replied taking a single step closer. Gently she lowered herself till she was laying upon her stomach, nearly level with the pup. ?I am Canta Destruction.? She spoke softly, as was her usual. The yearling wondered if the boy recognized his surname, she wasn?t keen on opening up with telling him that she was really his older sister. Partially because she wasn?t sure she was ready to say it, and partially because she wasn?t sure how easy that would be for the pup to accept.
She leaned to the side slightly, trying to get a better glimpse at the broken egg behind him. ?What did ya find?? It was surprisingly easy to put some enthusiasm in her voice. She certainly didn?t want him to think he was in trouble.

?Hello. I am Canta Destruction.? Dutiron was used to seeing wolves bigger than himself, though Canta was certainly the biggest he had seen yet, once she had lowered herself to the ground though there wasn't much difference between her and anyone else. Her name caught his attention however and a thoughtful look crossed over his features, that was part of his name wasn't it? Destruction... he was sure that was what his mother had said. "Hey, that's like my name." He declared cheerfully, rather confident in his memory for now. "I'm Dutiron Destruction." ?What did ya find?? At that question his joy subsided slightly and that guilty feeling returned, not sure if he should show Canta the broken stone, he didn't want to get in any trouble, he hadn't meant to cause any damage after all. "Ummm... I don't know." He responded quietly, gaze now dropping to the ground to avoid looking at her in case she got angry with him. He'd never been told off before, certainly didn't want to be either.

Canta had to smile as it became clear he recognized their shared name. He spoke and she chuckled but then the young boy was introducing himself. "Well Dutiron that's because it is our family name." She paused waiting for that to sink in a bit before speaking again. "Lots of wolves who are in your family have the last name Destruction, aunts, uncles and siblings..." She trailed off, unsure if she should finish that train of thought.

She frowned slightly as he grew more outwardly reluctant. He avoided her gaze and spoke in mumbled tones. "Don't worry you won't get in trouble, I won't tell our," she stumbled quickly trying to recover, "your mother." Despite the stumble she managed to give a soft laugh at the idea.

Dutiron had known others shared his Destruction name, those in his litter for starters. With so many other questions about the world however, his family name had been the least of his thoughts and the question hadn't previously come to mind until meeting this stranger with the same name. "Well Dutiron that's because it is our family name. Lots of wolves who are in your family have the last name Destruction, aunts, uncles and siblings..." He had met some of them though of course the boy had no idea just how vast his family was at the moment, perhaps the other reason he had never wondered much about his Destruction name. "I've met some of them." He declared proudly, clearly realising already that he couldn't assume that he had met them all. "Novel is around a lot, and Aunt Novella. They have really similar names, do you know why?" For now that first question would do, perhaps it was something he would need to ask his mother, for Canta after all had never met her grandparents though the curiosity had certainly sparked now and he wondered if there was some reason though what that reason might be he really wasn't sure. "What are you in the family?" He couldn't help but wonder about that as well, these aunts, uncles and siblings, where did Canta fit into it all. He wanted to understand everything about the world, but if he didn't even know who he was related to and how then what hope did he really have? "Don't worry you won't get in trouble, I won't tell our, your mother." The change of word was something that would surely be noticed as he got older, though for now he was young enough and so caught up in trying to avoid being told off that he thought nothing of it now. Comforted by the fact he wouldn't get into trouble he would shift a little so Canta could see the eggshell. "I think it broke. I didn't mean to do it."

Despite herself Canta couldn?t help but smile as the boy spoke, clearly proud that he had already met others of the family. "Novel is around a lot, and Aunt Novella. They have really similar names, do you know why?" It didn?t surprise the girl one bit that her tiny sister and aunt were ever present in the pup?s lives. She pondered his question for a moment, cocking her head to the side as she thought.
?Truth be told I don?t.? It had never really occurred to her that there might be a reason behind the similarity in their names, but now that it had been brought up she had to wonder. She wouldn?t get much time to ponder as the boy spoke again, a simple question really but with a not quite so simple answer; at least, not for the ebony girl. ?I?m ah, I?m your older sister.? It felt strange to say it out loud. ?Well one of your older sisters? you have a few.? She added quickly. In truth the pup?s other older sisters had been gone for some time, and Canta wasn?t sure he?d ever meet them all.
Her attention was once more drawn to the boy as he shifted, moving so that she could see the broken object behind him. An egg, harmless really. Canta chuckled softly. ?You don?t need to worry Dutiron.? She assured him, quickly glancing around to see if she could find the nest the egg had fallen from. ?Do you see up there?? She said nodding her head to the nest in the branches. ?That egg must have fallen out when it got too crowded in the nest, it probably cracked some when it hit the ground, so it was already broken, you just? helped it along.?

It of course would be Dutiron to wonder about the similarity first. The curious young boy sometimes seemed to have simply too many questions as he ambitiously tried to learn about everything in the world. He would be disappointed however when Canta would respond with the fact that she didn't know why the two names were so similar. "Oh." He would begin simply, only disheartened for a moment before the next round of questions would begin. "Who will know? Do you think I should ask my mum? Or maybe even Novella and Novel, do you think they might know?" He would pause only for a moment before another question would form on the topic. "Does anyone else have names like that? Is there a Dutir or something? Or what about Cant? I don't think those ones work so well though." Dutiron was a much better name, and Canta too but Novel and Novella were equally as nice. A grin would spread across his face as she introduced herself as his older sister. So he had more elder siblings it seemed, how exciting! "So like Novel? She's my older sister too. If there are a few who are the others then?" He hadn't seen any other of his elder siblings so suddenly he was rather curious as to who else he would have to look out for. Canta would be quick to try rid Dutiron of his worries about the broken object behind him. His yellow gaze would follow to glance up at the trees as she motioned towards the nest, nodding to signal that he could see. "What's an egg?" He would question glancing back to his sister once more. Obviously he'd seen the broken one, but what was it for? "If it can break like that why was it in the tree in the first place? And what's a nest?"

The child seemed disappointed that she did not know the answer to his question though now that he had posed it she was curious too. The girl had to laugh though as he suddenly bombarded her with new questions. She shrugged, doubtful that either Novel or Novella might know. ?Mother might know?? She muttered mostly to herself. But he was already off asking yet another question. ?It is possible but I doubt it.? Both Novel and Novella seemed like full, real names but the ones her little brother had suggested did not, though anything was possible.
A part of her regretted admitting that there were other older sister?s for the boy, how could she explain to him that his other sisters had left? that they were gone? ?Well your other sisters, Lakota and Fal?dara are? away on an adventure. They haven?t been back here in some time but we miss them dearly and hope that they will return here eventually, but also know that they might love the adventuring life too much?? Gods she hoped that was enough of an answer for the boy.

Dutiron nodded, letting her know he could see the nest. "What's an egg?" Full of questions this one! He ran the gauntlet of questions and she waited until he seemed to finish. ?An egg is a little den for baby birds while they develop, unlike wolves they aren?t born alive, instead a mommy bird will lay a clutch of eggs, build her nest which is like a den in the trees for her family,then when the baby is developed it will break out of the egg.? She paused for a moment looking at her brother. ?The baby in your egg probably wasn?t ever going to break out of its shell, see the other little birds in the nest? They needed the space and so they pushed it from the nest; which was built high up in a tree to protect it from those that might want to steal the eggs.?
