Bel'Fin

Why would one create? Why would a single individual make something out of nothing? For Bel'Fin the answer was easy.

Traveling endlessly. Never having a real home to begin with, having been born to a packless mother. Then loosing the only thing she knew. Her heart knew there was only one option.

___________________________

Being the only pup surviving past three months, to an older wolf already about six. Born in the spring which was beneficial to her survival. Being so young with someone so much older had made her a quite reserved. Very quiet and to herself. Her mother hadn't spoke much and she took on that trait. The moment she weaned she had learned to be fairly independent. Gaining a quick to adapt mindset. Her mother as silent as she was, did manage to be very wise and gave her good basics for survival. 

Though she was mostly to herself, when she was just a puppy she was very curious. Questions consistently popping in her head. Finally she was about six months old when she voiced some of her questions to her mother. Like her lineage, why it had always just been the two of them, where they were going, why they never stop moving. Miniscule things maybe, but she had no clue how deep the reasons went. Her mother took time before she could confront her child. Having told her in that moment she herself wasn't ready to re-spark the past.

Things remained the same right until her first birthday. 

That's when the stories began. She adored listening to her mothers tales of when she was young. A puppy like herself, growing up in a pack. Her past was filled with experience. Not all of it was happy. Still she was glad to know her roots, no matter how dark. Where her mother came from. When she left her pack and why. Her other litters she's had and where they are. Mostly far from where they currently were... or just gone.

She became more aware of her mother. Seeing her more as a mentor and life guide. The reasons, all the paths she's taken to become who she is. She respected and admired her. Just personally, she didn't agree with everything.

She knew one thing. That leaving home after home. Loved one after loved one. Afraid of connections. Sometimes fleeing  isn't the right thing. It won't help you grow into your best self.

She valued this relationship. This experience. She was thankful to be with her. It was a mutual beneficial relationship. The pup getting all the care, attention, exploration, and mental exercise possible. She was raised happy. Unknowingly she helped cure her mothers depressing loneliness.

Though their time together was not guaranteed to last.  

Age caught up to her.

The pup can remember the exact moment. Though no longer a pup. Managing to stick by the others side into adulthood. The only one of her children to do so. Maybe age made the old wolfs heart weaker not only internally but emotionally. Both were forever altered.

Her mother died knowing loyalty and unconditional love. A successful long lived life. After her passing she spent a few months alone. Until suddenly a very odd scent wafted through. Unfamiliar to her. She had been alone she hadn't focused on another wolfs scent in so long. This one was overpowering. 

The child now with a legacy to continue. Overwhelmed with fear, and some minor excitement. 

Determined to do what should've been done a generation ago.... 

Rushing off into the woods only to run into a very amusing black wolf. Having introduced herself as Tala, in return also asking to know hers.

The girl paused. Lost in thought. Her voice not speaking once since the night she became alone.  

"I'm Bel'fin."

Notable Relationships and Place in the Pack:

Best friend and Co-Lead: Fanya

Since the start Bel'Fin has been able to rely the most on Fanya. From choosing a name for the pack, gaining stability and roots. It would have been entirely impossible without her. Their connection runs deep. Soulmates in a way. Together they were able to create a solid beginning for what would become a long generation.

Cute Scene: 

The pair were alone in the Den. Their pack each focused on their daily routines, hunting, teaching, exploring, ect. Bel'Fin and Fanya would often use their mornings to council one another and speak through what needed to go on within the pack and such. On days such like this where everything is normal the two will just enjoy each others company and use it as a bonding time to keep the friendship close. Today Bel'Fin was thinking about how far she had come, and wanted to do something she never really had a proper chance to do before.

"Fanya. Thank you for agreeing to do this with me. For being the first to support this dream." Bel'Fin's olive eyes stared needles at the other wolf. She spoke in a serious firm manor. Her body stiff and unwavering. Fanya on the other hand was unable to be still. Her tail hit the floor heavily as it wagged side to side. Her ears going flat against her head, and tears brimming the dull gray eyes of hers. 

"Bel' you absolute jerk." Was all the gray wolf could spit out before being overcome with tears of joy. Nuzzling up against the modest wolf along with little licks of affection. 

Honey: 

A very sweet wolf, one of the very first to help form the pack. So close to the roots of the pack Honey is entrusted with the packs survival. Being the herbalist because of her fair nature. She grew so close to Bel'Fin in fact they often are found sleeping together and are most attentive to each other. Some seemly unspoken chemistry may linger between the two....

GOT HITCHED 

Ark Rose:

The daughter of Honey and the packs Breeding male Marcel. A very promising and prominent pack member. Young indeed but already a fantastic brood mother. Likely because she is naturally observent. Bel'Fin had a fairly intense roll with raising Ark Rose along with Honey. Picking her from the litter specifically. Downing her in immense affection, grooming and just overall care. Honey and Bel'Fin spent most days with each other due to the timing of heats raising their every litter together. For Bel'Fin Ark Rose is absolutely something different. Allowing her to take over as the Lead Pupsitter proceeding the very respected Pupsitter Stanley. Who had in himself watched over Ark Rose as a pup. 

Mariella: 

Her very own daughter. Coming out very much like her mother. Bel'Fin herself being a very reserved wolf, not overly social or extremely emotional. Her daughter on the other hand as much as she is like her mother takes it one step further. Bel is quite proper and expects the same out of her pack. Her daughter got the worst of it. Trained from the moment her mother birthed her. Not that she was too harsh but in fact, Mariella downs the fact one must know how to speak and to sway the mind of others to gain affection. Her daughter having a great skill in being charismatic. 

Marcel:

The packs Breeding male. Bel'Fin had in fact not been the one to choose Marcel. It was indeed a choice Fanya made. Which was fine in Bel'Fin's opinion. Breeding to Bel wasn't a major focus. As lead she deems it more important to focus on the overall well-being of the pack. It was clear to Bel when Fanya had fallen in love with the other scout. She holds much respect for him and is grateful for how well he suits his roll. Though due to her friends love/connection for the breeding male and to increase genetics for the pack Bel'Fin only mates with Marcel when there is no other alternative.
