The things that heath had told him here numerous, and his ind had been slightly cluttered with the idea of his new body. But he remembered him telling him that life was too short to be afraid, too short to stand behind another. Alder hadn't told him how closely he kept to his mother, but perhaps such things were written in his body language. Still, when she had told him to venture here and seek out his brother Alder knew that it would be okay and he could even feel the change in the air around him.
The rider dismounted, and Alder looked on as the horse approached him. Just as he had when he was a pup he accepted the oncoming beast and even felt the uncontrolled wag of his tail behind him. It was Rem, a friend of his and with the voice and and posture of the horse Alder could see that he was pleased to see the Dreaming wolf. The youngster was not small any more, grown large and larger then the average that were before their first birthday. Alder gave a whine, blue eyes looking at the horse's face and their noses meeting with an excited greeting.
He heard his name, and looked passed the horse to see the good friend of his mother. His ears fell, though her words and voice were pleasant and cordial. Still the sight of her was ever so slightly intimidating. She smiled, lowering herself to his eye level. I'm well. He spoke, polite as his mother always taught him, voice deeper then his posture might convey. She is also well He stated, eyes falling to the ground. Its good to see you, and Rem. He spoke, smiling as he looked at the horse again. He wished it was just as easy to be with his fellow canine as it was to be with the silent creatures such as the horse.
