I have returned from my trip around Moladion, I had seen much over the last few weeks of me being away, and I was quite happy. Really I was going to head out again soon, but that was only because I didn’t have much here for me anymore. No family, no friends except Leonidas I was just alone here. Out there at least I wasn’t expecting company, in a pack one expected to be surrounded by others. I had no one here, but I decided that I needed a path in life. What I was not sure, but I guessed it was time to really have a deep conversation with my foster father Alcide or mother MoonGlow. I wasn’t sure what path would fit me, I was hoping they would be able to tell me what they thought my family history could bring me, what I may form up into or anything really to see where I belonged.

I had thought long and hard about what I wanted to do. I did enjoy a good fight, but I don’t think I would like to be a warrior, maybe more of a guardian, or hunter? I did not know, I only knew I loved to sing and listen to bird songs. I would not tell a soul this, it was my secret I was certain anyone would make fun of me for it. I needed a place though, I was not content doing nothing all my life. Something inside of me stirred and drove me to be better than some, it was often what got me and Leo into a good fight. I couldn’t help it around him, he challenged me and I was quick to try and put him down. I was a little bigger but he was always tough guy to go toe-to-toe with regardless. Good thing he was on my side, I would hate it if we were truly enemies. Rivals was time consuming enough.

I moved up the mountain that was my home. My mahogany and golden form blazing in the sun, rippling with each movement and shadow that crossed over me. It was hot out, my only complaint for the day, but the sun was high in the sky so what did I expect? I heard the familiar sounds of my friends singing high in the trees as my young body moved higher up, soon I would be nearing the den of Alcide and MoonGlow, the den I had been staying in up until recently. Hopefully one or both would be there to help guide me and start me on the correct path of my life. Most pups wanted to play and practice hunting. I was ready to decide my life’s path. Something to show who I was and what I could be.
