The sun's rays beat down upon Keldava, sinking into her dark fur and sending a pleasant warmth spreading throughout her body, further lulling the puppy into the half-sleep she was teetering at the edge of.

Keldava's wanderings had taken her to a rather pleasant part of the pack territory, a lightly forested area where trees close together but not tightly packed left the ground dappled with shadows and small patches of sun, occasionally breaking apart into small sections of light; such as the one Keldava was dozing in.

Keldava wasn't out today in search of idle exploring but to try and unwind. The last few weeks had been stressful to the puppy as she watched one by one her siblings begin to shift, attaining the bipedal and halfling forms that defined the Luperci from a regular wolf. While it didn’t some up often Keldava was often rather sore about technically being the youngest of her siblings and, despite the fact that the age difference measured in mere minutes, watching them all shift before her was distressing.

Despite her stress Keldava's frustration wasn't directed at her siblings - she was too protective over Dalgina and Pandora to really get angry with then, especially for things they had no control over, and her relationship with Honrin was good if a little bit distant at times - so instead her frustrations were directed at her own body, slowly turning to fear. When Honrin and Pandora had shifted ahead of her and pretty much on schedule she was annoyed but now, a full week after Dalgina had shifted, Keldava was starting to believe that there was something wrong with her body. Maybe she would never shift, stuck as a normal wolf her entire life while her siblings all walked around on two legs? It was something that she didn’t want to think about and burying her head in her paws and losing her mind in the sun helped her to do this.
