As you enter the forest, you come across a black wolf. Concentrating on the dragonfly in front of him, he doesn't even notice you're there.

"What's a wolf cub doing all alone in the forest?" you ask yourself, confused.

You realize there must be a pack around here, and keep on walking further, making sure not to disturb the cub.

"That was Coal, Slush and Misty's cub. Maybe you will see them as you walk on? I believe they just got a new litter."

"Oh really?? Lets go now!" you say, excited.

Pushing through the underbrush, you part the stray branches of the bush, revealing a wolf. Assuming it was alone too, you realize that it's haughty, protective stance was because it was watching over a female and her cubs. It's snow-white fur began to bristle as it realized that you were watching it, and it's grey-tipped ears perked up, listening to your every move. You inch away slowly.

"I don't think I'm welcomed here Cindra." you note.

"No, you're just a stranger, Slush has been more protective ever since Misty birthed her new litter of cubs." Cindra explained, "And look where you just stumbled into."

You realize that you were inching right toward Misty and her cubs. Glancing cautiously at Slush, you both stare at each other. He seems to relax as he notices that you came with Cindra.

Misty sat, lovingly watching her cubs, which were all different. Three of them had to same markings of a base color, and tipped fur at the ears, tail, paws, and elsewhere. One did not though, which was a sandy brown color, and playfully knelt down, ready to pounce. It's eyes were looking brightly at you, and you grin.

You were unsure whether you should stay longer though, as much as you wanted to play with the cubs. Backing away reluctantly, you return to Cindra.

"How cute!" you exclaim, over the cubs.

"Yes, they are going to grow up just like their parents. Jody hasn't named them yet."

"Oh really? I already have one!" you say, wishing you could name one.

"Ummhmm ... where to next?"
