For the first time in ages the sun was actually shining. Jael had finally been able to properly clean his snowy coat, removing all traces of mud and grime from his pelt, leaving it a pristine, flawless white. The ground beneath his paws was no longer soggy and damp, squelching with each step as he crossed the sodden soil. He rolled in the grass, reveling in the feeling of being able to lay down without dirtying or dampening himself and grinned faintly like a schoolboy amused at some joke of his own design. But this quickly passed, slinking through the trees as he idly searched for something to eat. A wolfen scent greeted his nostrils and curiously, cautiously the creature moved from the shadows toward a clearing, spotting the youth on his back with his paws in the air, watching the sky.
The distinct odor that permeated from his pelt was familiar and briefly the Inferni boy wrinkled his muzzle in disgust, quickly growing to dislike the neighboring wolf pack as he encountered more and more of it’s canine members. His half-brother resided there, along with a few more wolves that closed their eyes in the face of blind ignorance. But this was a child, and perhaps just yet he remained untainted by such asinine ideals. “I’ve heard it’s bad to stare into the sun,” he tested, smirking vaguely as he stood beside a tree not far away, watching the youth with molten eyes.
