He was in the stables working with Marahute and Tobias, his new redtail hawk he’d captured a week or so ago. He was surprised with the progress he made, the bird did not trust him yet but he was much more calm around Niro than he could have expected. Niro had used soft words with the bird, happy that he got this far with him. Marahute trusted and loved its new master, although Niro wished it wouldn’t take a year just to figure out if the baby bird was a girl or a boy. He’d found out Tobias was a male.
As he was admiring the bird and playing the trust game with him, he heard a howl for help, nothing urgent, it wasn’t an emergency, but it was something he’d noted that he could help with. Anann was finally building her house, so he gathered Marahute, put it in his pouch and gloved his hands, blindfolded the hawk, and scooped him off his perch as well and ran to the building site as quickly as possible. It didn’t take him long to find his way to the other wolves, there were three there in total, and two horses, it was now him and his birds, but the birds couldn’t help in any way so it was just him to come to the aide. This was great too because Niro loved using his hands, and wood was one of his specialties, he’d made his trap and cage that now resided in the Stables. (he would set another trap when Marahute was older, right now it was taking too much of his time.). He smiled at them all, he’d met them once or twice in the time he’d been in the Miracle’s pack.
Heath! It’s good to see you, here’s the result of your help!
Niro said excitedly, pointing to the small chick in his pouch, the head of the bird was sticking out of it watching everything that was going on. Heath was the one that had helped him get the egg from the nest of the Eagles not too long ago, and he’d seen the wolf at the party for the Miracle’s celebration, he didn’t get the chance to talk with his new friend. He wanted to but he’d been preoccupied. He then turned his attention to Anann smiling.
promised I’d be here, I still owe you for these gloves,
He said holding his arms up, with the bird squaking indignantly on his right arm, he smiled sheepishly,
Is there anywhere I can teather this guy up? I brought him because he needs to get use to pack noises as well as pack voices. He should be good as long as he’s teathered and blindfolded.
Niro said, a huge grin on his face. He was ready to get to work, this was a massive project and he knew she needed all the help she could get, even the little chick would be out of the way, he’d brought a small cage for it, he trusted the bird to stay where she was but he didn’t have a huge nest like it’s parents did and if Marahute fell, even only a foot from the ground it was lights out for the poor thing, so he’d made something small that would keep her confined while he helped. He turned to Anatoliy letting him know that he wasn’t ignoring the wolf, he also seemed rather happy about this build, which was good the more enthusiastic the wolves were about building, the better it would be.
