Little Wolf does not mind doing the more mundane tasks around camp, the everyday things that needed to be done. Sure, she knows an apprentice could sort through the freshkill pile, or bring prey to the elder. But then she would be left with idle paws and right now her head is swirling with too many thoughts, almost none of which she wanted to acknowledge. Today, the nursery was in need of repairs. There was a draft coming from a hole in the wall of bramble that encompasses the den. She had already gone out into the woods, gathered fresh supplies to weave into the den, including some moss if the queens wished to have fresh bedding. With her supplies clutched in her jaws she had promptly made her way back to camp. It had taken a couple of trips to round everything up but the ebony molly was determined.
When finally she had everything she set to work, weaving the den back together with her paws. She is just about finished and she goes to step backwards, admiring her handiwork when suddenly a fat drop of water, leftover from yesterday's downpour, hits her on the nose. "Oh mouse dung" she swears quietly. The hole needed to be fixed but when she stands up on her hind legs she is quick to find that she cannot quite reach. She settles back onto her haunches, head tipped up at the roof of the den and eyes narrowed in frustration.
