With the sun getting higher in the sky the Knight decided it would be best to do one last boarder patrol before setting up for the trip to the Artisans. His mind was in a continual state of buzzing, his thoughts turning in a never-ending cycle. He worried about his boys, they were still learning but these lessons where ones that he could hardly help them with these life lessons. There was only so much a father could teach, there was a point where his kin needed to simply try things, fail and learn and unfortunately it frustrated the Alpha greatly that they had entered that time in their lives.
He could hear the steady beating of wings in the air around him, a clear sign that the barn owl he had long since decided was his, now followed him safely in the air. A warning screech from above, a sign Jazper had quickly learned to mean that a strange predator was near the territory line. He struggled to understand the different sounds of the owl, Alyssum has informed him that Alena did not make the same hooting noises as most other owls but instead communicated in varying types of screeches. It it had been up to the Sole the bird would have never been brought into the territory but under Dixie’s persistence she was now very attached to Jazper.
Her warning rang true when an entirely canine call echoed near by, the words clear as day. A large smile spread cross his face and his tail began to wag in excitement as his two feet began to jog in the direction of the sound. It had been over a year since he had last seen his oldest daughter and her voice was more than welcome. It took him a short while to arrive at the borders, slowing to a halt in front of his fully grown daughter.
Sophia, il mio piccolo angelo.
He cooed as he wrapped his arms around her. Pulling back from the hug and leaving his hands on her shoulder he beamed at her, It has been far too long. What draws you out of the city?
