Kiara stood in the middle of the glen. The days were gradually growing cooler and the mornings had taken on the brisk scent of fall. Some leaves in the young forest had already begun to change colors, their vibrant forms strange against the greenery. However, the change meant that fall was upon them and soon, the first snows would arrive. Kiara couldn't wait. She hated summer and the past one had been the worst of her life. Fall promised change, and change was what she needed.

The arctic female had spent most of the day tracking different herds. The huntress had found a deer pack close by, one that showed promise for having weak individuals. It was hard finding good prey during the summer months, as it was a time of plenty for the prey species. However, Kiara felt like it was time for the pups to prove their worth to the pack. The first pack hunt was a traditional right from the Amarok family, and was important for a puppies growth. It was one of the major milestones in a young wolf's life, and despite all of the unfortunate situations that they were in, Kiara refused to let her daughter miss something so important. She had taught Lucia how to hunt, but now Lucia had to prove herself to the pack.

Leaning her head back, Kiara called to the rest of the pack. Her normally submissive voice had taken on the kind, but commanding quality of a mother. Her high voice rose and fell as she called to the pups and to the pack, asking them join her in the hunt. Hopefully, all of the pups would come as well as most if not all of the pack. When her voice died down, she lowered her muzzle and sat back to wait and see who would come.
