So yay, bringing in a new memberrrr!
The golden boy was built for endurance, for trotting long hours nonstop and never seeming to tire. It was clear that his little traveling companion was not, however, at least not at her young age. He was unused to having to make concessions for someone when it came to running, as he and his siblings had never traveled far together, and the adults could keep his steady pace. He managed to stop when she grew especially tired, sometimes offering to pick her up although he wanted her to be able to make this important journey for herself. At least, he would want to in her place.
Her gold eyes flicked to him with concern as she asked more questions, and he gave her a reassuring grin. “They gotta like you!” the prince proclaimed. “And no one stays little forever. Mom said I used to be little.” He snorted as if to show how silly the thought of him being tiny and defenseless was, but it was very true even if it was beyond his memory. “Your fur is good in snow, which is white and covers all the land in winter. But Caspa has whitish-kinda fur too, like a ghost, and she’s my good friend and in the Council. ’sides, there’ll be other stuff you can do other ’n hunting.”
Her last question was a truer concern, but he shrugged. “I’ll tell them everything about that,” Skoll murmured. He was distracted until they finally reached the border of the Kingdom, at which point he sat and glanced cheekily at her until she made her last remark.
The boy’s howl left something to be desired—but what it lacked in the powerful, soulful tones of a pure adult wolf, it made up for in boisterous volume and the quality of “come here now!” that was sure to get the attention of someone important.
“And now we wait,” Skoll stated, and flopped down on his belly, inviting the girl to settle down too with a flick of his tail. He knew he could run straight into the territory if he wanted to, but he didn’t want Kace to be left alone, and he wanted to make this official.
