The last two years had been…hectic. A blur of finding MoonGlow and his family again, establishing themselves as the true rulers of the mountain, bringing a new daughter into the world, doing their best to adopt and foster three children that had lost their parents, and now MoonGlow was absent from the packlands altogether. And Alcide could only blame himself for her trips away from Moladion. Her pregnancy with Daenerys had been physically demanding, and the emotional toll of going against her Shamaness heritage had been even more draining. In the past year and a half since Daenerys’s birth she had left Moladion on multiple occasions. She had returned over the winter and now had left again during the summer months. And the agony of not knowing when she would return next was unbearable. Not to mention the constant lingering reminder that he had put her, and their first litter, through this same unknowing state of mind when he had left Solevion when Sleekwing, Swallowbane, and Orca were but pups. But he took strength in knowing that if he kept Spirane thriving and strong, someday MoonGlow would return to her rightful place at its summit. At the height of the afternoon, Alcide sat at the mouth of the den where MoonGlow’s scent still lingered. He missed her dearly, but he would carry on in her place and maintain the home and dreams she had built here. One of those dreams was to care for those who had no one to care for them. Over the years they had taken in Ceal, as well as Rhiannon and Taliesin. Alcide wished he could have given more of his time to the pups he had taken under his wing. Now Ceal was half grown and Rhiannon and Taliesin had both left the den now that they were adventuresome yearlings. Alcide grew lonely, for now there were even some nights that Daenerys chose not to return to their den. Gazing out over the land he called home, he released a long breath. There was much to be done. He had set forth tasks to challenge the population of Spirane, hoping that they would rise to the occasion and prove themselves as deserving of the ranks he set before them. He had challenged both of his sons to establish their positions in the pack. But Swallowbane’s constant distaste for anything that had to do with his father made the situation particularly taxing. Nothing he did was good enough for his son. Shaking his head at the thought, he lifted his gaze to the heavens and closed his eyes, letting the hot summer sun beat down upon his face. At the sound of an approaching wolf, his good ear flicked backwards to listen to the movement. He recognized the pawsteps of his foster son, Taliesin, and turned his head to receive him as he grew near. “Taliesin,” he said, baritones booming forth in greeting, “How are you, son?” He did not pivot his position, instead inviting the mahogany hued boy to join him on his perch that overlooked the mountainside. It was a beautiful vantage point and one that he would happily share with the lad. Perhaps Swallowbane would never accept him into his life, but maybe Taliesin would allow him into his.  |
