The silence of the fall was soon interrupted by a voice she was all to familiar with. Her youngest cousins, well mostly Niyol, but Mochimal was far from innocent as well, caused her all sorts of headaches when they were children. Grandfather always laughed and thought they brought life to the forest. He was older and their stories and Zelda’s complaining that not once, but twice has she found LIVE snakes in her den surely placed by the little troublemakers always made him smile. She paused though, happy to entertain her younger cousin especially seeing how quiet things had become as of late. It was nice, but the day to day life did get a little dull at some point.

”Greetings, Mochimal.” She said lightly, a little smile on her maw. Her teal eyes landed on him watching as he ran up, tail wagging eyes bright and full of life. They were living the life she had so far as a child. When she was a pup everything had been so peaceful, but that ended on her third year. Things went crazy and she only hoped the boys wouldn’t suffer the same way she had. Really, as dull as things were the anguish that would be avoided was for the best.

”I’m honestly doing nothing but enjoying the last days of fall. Mild as it has been the leaves have stayed in the trees far longer than usual. Taviora has the most beautiful forest in the fall and I’ve been all over and can’t say any other pack of land rivals the beauty of our home.” She said lightly, ”But, eventually I was thinking on going to see Grandfather if you would want to come with me. I’m sure seeing you unexpectedly would bring a smile to his face.” She added not sure how he would feel about such a thing. Pups sometimes didn’t understand that those who were older and did little more than share stories were interesting and may not be able to share those stories for much longer. Still she hoped that maybe her little cousin would come along, it would mean the world to their ancient grandsire.
