My first pack timeline! It perfectly fit to where I am! After this, will start doing updates based on seasons, as long as enough happens to warrant a new update. If not, I’ll probably do every two seasons or so, we’ll just have to see.

Please ignore some wonky icons, it kept doing the stupid snap to object thing and I couldn’t figure out how to turn it off for a bit XD

Abaise was woken from her light nap by the sound of a panicked screech, leaping to her paws and whipping her head around, her hackles immediately raised, thinking a cougar had gotten into the camp.

Instead, she saw Chasmu tripping over him trying to grab a couple of dead leaves blowing away in the wind, a rather unamused Nasuyekwi watching him for a second, before the pale scout let out a huff and laid her head back down.

Abaise sighed and walked over to where Chasmu had finally given up and flopped down onto his haunches, looking defeated as he watched the leaves be carried away on the afternoon wind that never failed to whip across the grasslands they called home.

“Chasmu? Everything alright?”, the golden leader asked, flicking her tail as she sat in front of the pack’s herbalist.

“No, everything’s not alright!”, Chasmu said, looking defeated. “It took me ages to find an oak tree that looked as healthy as the one that those leaves came from, and I was just going to use them! Now the medicine I have will be bad, I already mixed the other two ingredients.”, he said, glancing over at Kotsim walked over, walking over and sitting beside Abaise.

“We can find you more oak leaves, Chasmu.”, he said calmly, flicking his tail. “I can Nasuyekwi out to find some. They might not be as good as the ones you had, but they’ll work.”, he said.

Chasmu just looked at him, before he sighed softly, and nodded, turning and walking back to his den.

Abaise sighed softly, glancing over at her mate thankfully. “Thank you, I had no idea how to handle that.”, she said softly.

Kotsim chuckled softly. “Chasmu means well, he can just be a little eccentric sometimes.”, he said. “All you have to do is acknowledge that his worries are ok, but that they can be fixed.”, he said, before he stood, nuzzling Abaise’s cheek slightly, before he walked over to Nasuyekwi.

Abaise decided to get up and check on the pups, rather than have to listen to Nasuyekwi complain about having responsibilities.

When she walked into the large den that Daka and Phesniza lived in, she could see the reddish form of Phesniza curled up asleep next to Singwe in one corner, while Daka and Anpa were talking in the other.

Abaise smiled softly at the sight, walking over, hearing Daka explaining to Anpa the best techniques for hunting, though the white pupsitter stopped and wagged her tail at the sight of her cousin.

“Abaise.”, she said respectfully, as Anpa jumped up and yipped happily, Abaise nuzzling her daughter before she laid down beside her.

“Hello, Daka. Anpa hasn’t been too much trouble I hope.”, she said, giving her daughter a look, but she was too busy trying to burrow into Abaise’s belly fur to notice.

Daka chuckled. “Nope. She tired Singwe our earlier with a game of chase, but sadly she’s been wide awake.”, she teased. “But I figured it would be a perfect time for some hunting theory lessons.”, she said.

Abaise chuckled softly at that, glancing down at where her little look alike was curled up next to her belly, her head laid on her paws. “Well, she could definitely use the help for when she gets older.”, she said, tapping her tail slightly. “Especially since the weather won’t be fair forever.”

Daka nodded grimly at that, looking worried. “Hopefully we’ll be established enough by then.”, she said, before she glanced at her cousin, glancing away just as quickly, her ears flattened slightly. “Forgive me, but I also question our location for winter.”, she said. “It will be cold, and we’re largely unprotected here.”

Abaise sighed softly, looking a bit worried. “You’re right.”, she said. “The wind’s are bad enough now, it will be worse during winter.”, she said, thinking back to Chasmu’s panic at losing the oak leaves. “And woods would grant us better protection from snow.”, she said.

Daka looked at her cousin, her ears pricking up. “It sounds like you’ve already been thinking about this.”, she said.

Abaise nodded. “I have. I just want to ask Kotsim his thoughts.”, she said.

“He’ll agree with you I’m sure.”, Daka said. “Besides, you’re our leader. You don’t need anyone’s approval but your own. We all trust you.”, Daka said, touching her nose to Abaise’s.

Abaise just smiled at her cousin, glancing at Anpa, who was now asleep against her side.

Moving would be the best chance for her pack, and for her daughters. Her mind was made up.

They’d move the next day.

((Yay, first piece of WolvDen lore writing! I’ve been debating moving my pack for a couple days, and I think I’ve finally decided to do so. Haven’t decided between the Deciduous Forest and the Riparian Woodland yet, but will do so tomorrow and figure out how to move my pack tomorrow XD. But also a bit of a glimpse of my pack dynamics and my wolf’s behaviors. Will probably have more writings down the road!))
