Birch

Birch was born to two loners. She learned from the start how to track, scout, and survive alone in the woods. They day she became and adolescent her parents told her to get lost and never to come back. Shocked, she left. She survived alone until she grew into a beautiful and smart survivalist in the harsh deciduous forest. One day she stumbled upon a group of three male wolves, a hunting party. They were the Jakte party of Torden pack. Birch had heard stories of Torden pack, but thought that it was just a myth to keep pups from wondering off in the woods alone. It was supposedly a pack of wolves silent as whispers that disappeared with the mist when they wanted to go unseen. They seemed friendly especially one named Thrush who insisted that they take her back to their leader after he discovered Birch was a loner. The two others agreed and they took her to their Queen. Her name was Kyra. She was like no wolf Birch had ever seen. Kyra suggested that Birch stayed with them until she could decide what to do with her. They quickly decided to except her into their pack. Birch spent her days as a scout, exploring new territories alone, though she enjoyed the company of her pack when she was with them. In her senior years she became mates with Plikt He had be in Torden pack before her, but she had never really gotten to know him. She was happy and retired from scouting to live out her days with Plikt. The two decided to have puppies, unfortunately, Plikt died one moon before his puppies were born. Birch was devastated. Her puppies were born and Birch was instantly very protective. The winter that the puppies were born into was a harsh one. The puppies all died one by one. Convinced that the pupsitters couldn't do their job, Birch protected her last puppy on her own. She hardly slept, ate, or moved without her puppy with her. On a cold night when the winds whipped and howled, the puppy died. Birch tried to warm her up, but the poor thing was just to small to survive such a terrible winter. Birch was heartbroken. The young wolves of the pack, Sylvaine, Jay, Falcon, Verani, and Tempest, along with all the puppies and adolescents, made it there mission to help Birch. They always were with the elder, whether on a walk or just hanging out, they all grew very fond of Birch and her of them. Birch especially liked the young she-wolf Sylvaine. Sylvaine reminded Birch of herself at that age, a spit-fire who could easily handle herself with a compassionate side. The young she-wolf was who took over Birch's scouting position after Sylvaine expressed her love of exploring and going on new adventures every day. Birch happily gave her scouting position to Sylvaine. After that Birch happily lived out the rest of her days as an elder who was beloved by all of the the young wolves of the pack.
