Words-400 Anyone is welcome to post. Trying to get to know more of the pack =)

Throughout the whole day Jaden had been digging. Home was proving to be hard work. Ever since the move from Dahlia to Ichika things had been slow. Maybe it was just for the thick coated tundra wolf that things seemed slow. Everyone else was bustling with energy and exited about being in new territory. It wasn’t that Jaden himself wasn’t excited he just felt there was so much to do. He’d never had to join a pack before Ichika and the responsibility was monstrous. Every part of the land had to be explored, every pack member met, and a home had to be built from nothing.

What Jaden had been working on was the foundation of home, the more physical part. A small den now lay hidden under the gnarled roots of a fallen oak. It was small and inconspicuous against the forest’s dark backdrop. Looking at it again, Jaden snorted and rolled his eyes. If it were any smaller it would be a snake hole. But that was okay. Jaden didn’t have anybody to live with or even any real friends yet. Where he slept wasn’t really all that important. If he ever decided to settle down with someone or become more social and invite his pack members into his home, he’d have to find a new place. Those were thoughts for a different time though.

Jaden was content with his hole in the ground. After spending two days digging out the little thing he wasn’t ready to call it inadequate. No, he was just ready to relax. The sun was too far down for anything else to be done today and he was much too drained to hunt. With a sigh the Shishen tossed his satchel and other belongings into his den and wandered north toward the East river. The dirt in his fur was irritating. He had to clean himself before resigning for the night.

It didn’t take long to reach the East river from Jaden’s den. It was the prime reason he decided to settle there. It would be useful to clean and rehydrate the exhausted luprci. Upon meeting the water, he shifted from secui to optime and knelt at its dark edge. He splashed it on his face and body and began to take the smears of dirt out of his dark black and crimson coat.

Jaden does. "Jaden speaks." Jaden thinks.
