He missed his family with a deep set ache. He knew they where always there, quietly hovering over him, Voltage especially was a presence he constantly felt, even in haze or sleep, but it wasn't the same thing. He wanted Sere to attempt to climb his massive form, to run with the wind and Gale, to hear her constant laughter, to swim with Locha and help her get them both into trouble, to discover whats new with Terrae, and all the others, to be apart of their lives again, not this useless drain of resources. He didn't want to lie here helpless and useless to his beloved family. He knew he was on his way to recovery, he had already spoken to Voltage, had his first taste of fresh air, but he was yet to be surrounded by those he loved, to know first hand what had been going on with his lives.

He wanted to sit in a circle of family and laugh and share the stories of whatever adventures he had missed out on. He hobbled to the exit of his den and sat in the soft sunlight, it was late afternoon and it was quite in the pack lands and he found himself wondering where everyone was. Well, not everyone Voltage was already there beside him, through his brother was silent for the moment. Voltage was always there, it was just a fact of life, if Glacier lived, then his brother would be beside him, and vice versa. He let the moment stretch of a little bit longer before he would speak, asking the question that had been bugging him from the moment he first woke with a clear head. “I have no memories of Anais, was she here... at all?” he asked softly. In the haze of memory, he could recall the faces of all his family hovering over him at one point or another well he was sick, but none of a worried Anais, and the thought that he might have missed her presence hurt his chest, but there was another possibility too – she might not even know, she might simply think he had been too busy over the last few weeks to visit her, and that thought hurt the most. She would be in Ebony by now and if wanted to visit her it would be a long journey. Oh well... at least a journey like that would strengthen him. He gave Voltage a wry smile “Where is everyone?” he wondered.

Voltage would settle beside his brother, comfortably where he belonged. He wouldn't leave his side, not now that he was awake, not now that he seemed on the mend. He probably wouldn't be able to leave his brother's side for a long time now, always scared that one day he would fall again when Voltage wasn't there. That wasn't to say that Glacier was incapable of handling himself. He honestly was. If anyone could handle themselves against anything it was Glacier. Infact the only reason why he had been hurt in the first place was because he hadn't gone up against a puma

But that didn't mean Voltage didn't worry.

With a gentle sigh he'd look up at Glacier, a gentle smile upon his lips. He was tired...exhausted even. Sure, their pack was a rather sedetary one. No one really did much around here, but it seemed he was always being called to the borders to meet with an alpha or two, and he spent a great portion of his night awake at Glacier's side in worry. When he heard his big brother's voice he blinked and thought about it. He didn't have to think for long. With a small, sad shake of his head he looked back up at Glacier. "I'm sorry Big Brother...I haven't seen her." He said softly. He didn't think to go looking for her, he had even postponed his date with Gaia in order to spend time with his brother. When he asked, however, where the family was, Voltage began to grin. "Probably all hiding from Serefina." He said with a laugh, shaking his head just slightly. But he knew, the moment Glacier showed...they would crowd. Glacier was as important to the family as they all were, and he believed they would worry about their ice brother just as much as he did. He would throw his back and howl for everyone to join them.

Astrea had been worried, she wanted to talk to Voltage about Glaciers accident but she could never seem to nail her energetic brother down long enough, he was always doing one thing or the other. She knew he took Glaciers injury hard, feeling guilty about not being there to help. She frowned then, her head tiling up at the sky, it was afternoon but even so she still felt the pull from the stars. She closed her eyes and hummed needing guidance from the heavenly bodies to help her decide how to help voltage; but also to help Glacier. Astrea has seen how he was growing stronger and knew that he may also have some hangups from his injury and may need her help.

She sighed. Why would he? She was still a fledgling to being a guide, a Relicus. No one has yet to approach her for any reason. It kinda made her sad, being the Relicus has been a big step for her, she was not even sure she was right for the rule but she wanted to try; she wanted to be useful to the family, but she was not able to be useful if no one sought her out about problems that happened around them.

She opened her eyes then coming to a decision, she would corner Voltage and get him to talk to her, then maybe she could help him get over his guilt like he helped her get over her sadness and confusion.

She got up, her eyes scanning the sky then turned to make her way to the family den, knowing that he was most likely with Glacier. She made her way down from her perch and stopped when she saw that she was right about Voltage but not about Glacier. He looked... Better, sitting in the sunlight almost a new wolf.

Astrea smiled, moving forward slowly, the star on her chest softly brushing her fur. The small stone calmed her, giving her courage that she did not even know she had. She hummed, letting her brothers know she was there, and said, "Glacier, I am happy that you are well again." She sat beside the large male and nuzzled his neck and gave him a soft lick on the cheek.

She had not spent a whole lot of time with her eldest brother but she had been sad that he had been hurt, he was like a rock for more than just Voltage. Where Voltage was the energy of the family; Glacier was the glue that held them together and comforted them when they needed it. It had been like a hole had developed when he was gone. The family would have not been the same without him.

Along with getting used to her duties, her brother's health had been worrying the water nymph. Ever since seeing him on the day she'd been shaken up. She knew that Terrae had been doing all he could and she trusted him, but the girl still worried. This was why, when she was sitting on the beach and a familiar scent rejoined the others she jumped for joy.

Within a minute Locha arrived at the scene. After running full out, the girl slammed on the brakes, causing her to tumble to a stop on her side beside Glacier. She laughed before reaching up to nuzzle in his fur. She remembered the past Winter when she'd taken a fall on the slopes of the volcano and he'd came to her rescue. She didn't say anything but moved a little closer into his side.
