Kaleho

𝐊𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐡𝐨

The desert winds blew harshly, whipping back and forth, which sent grains of sand everywhere. The dark night had fallen, with only the stars to light the way. It was a stark contrast to the rainforest the large apricot-colored wolf had once known. A small lantern was held in his muzzle, which provided some sort of light.

Pushing on determinedly, Kaleho knew he had to get back home. He struggled to keep his hazel eyes open as the wind only grew harsher. A chill went down his spine, the desert nights were quite the opposite of the day. They were always, always cold.

Although it was dark, the large wolf knew the ravine was just ahead. He saw the faint glows of fire below, where he knew one of the caves housed his small family. Descending the side of the ravine with ease, he made his way past the many other dens quietly, hoping not to disturb the other the other sleeping wolves.

Entering the cave on the far right, he immediately noticed the silver vixen's green eyes, which seemed to glow in the firelight. A small, shell-colored pup slept soundly at her side. No words passed between the two, but Kaleho didn't need to speak. He settled down next to his family, letting sleep overtake him.

Kaleho was born to Makoa and Gracieux in the rainforest, on a particuarly quiet day. As the small pup squirmed towards his mother's sleeping side, his father flashed a smile.

Ever since his pup hood, both his father and mother never ceased to remind him how handsome he was. Because of this, Kaleho would often admire and groom himself daily to ensure he looked his absolute best!

Kaleho was well-liked by many of the pack. The alphess, Delja, was distantly related to him, by shared grandparents, so he often hung out with her son Kuparr, and his companion's cousin, Sandalio. The three got into all sorts of merry mischief together, which reminded his father of his youth with his own "troublesome trio."

One of his favorite people to hang out with, however, was his uncle Wilden. Wilden would take him on adventures in the rainforest, the stories of them which would sometimes alarm his mother, Gracieux, considering their rather dangerous aspect. Still, Makoa knew his son was in good hands.

As he became an adolescent, Kaleho expressed his desire to be a scout. Makoa proudly supported his desire, as he saw the same spark in his eye that he had when he had wanted to be a hunter. Kaleho always asked for stories of his grandfather, Kobayashi, who had been a scout. While Makoa didn't have many to tell, he would sometimes event stories to fuel Kaleho's drive. One day, Kaleho joyously returned with the great news that Saskia had taken him as her apprentice! They were both very proud of him, and Kaleho showed masterful skills in being a scout.

Life continued on fairly normal for the scout, until he stumbled upon a peculiar vixen in the rainforest. She had a gray-silver coat, and her vibrant green eyes could make the rainforest canopy envious. She was adorned with gold and green gems, with strange marks of the same metallic color lining her muzzle. Kaleho was instantly intrigued by her.

Although she had been nursing some light wounds, Kaleho bounded over eagerly. At first she seemed somewhat alarmed by the wolf (a creature she had never seen before), but eventually realized Kaleho was being harmless, despite his huge size.

"I've seen quite a few things in my life, but no canid creature quite as yourself." She peered closely at Kaleho. "You're far too feral to be a dog, and too large to be a fox."

"I'm a wolf! My name is Kaleho, and I'm a scout for my pack." He had proclaimed proudly, then noticed her wincing. "You're more than welcome to come back with me, if you want those tended to by an herbalist."

A small smile crossed her muzzle. "I've seen her before. The white one with colored markings, and flowers in her fur. Yes, we've met in a dream of mine."

Ever since, Kaleho was always intrigued by the vixen, who later introduced herself as Aisling. Aisling had claimed to be a mysterious seer of sorts-- her dreams were ridden with predictions of the future, or so she says. Whether they're true or not... well... that's up for debate. But Kaleho believed all of them, even those later that proved to be false.

Although Aisling initially found him somewhat peculiar, the two became smitten, and eventually became mates. After their move from the rainforest to the desert, Kaleho had found a small pup one day while scouting. Small, hungered, and obviously abandoned, Kaleho didn't hesitate. He took the pup back and together he and Aisling nursed the infant back to health, treating him as their own since they could not bear offspring together. The pup was named Kainalu, by his mother, and she taught him everything she knew-- including about being a so-called seer.

Kaleho had tried to interest Kainalu in some sort of job, but it had never clicked with the pup. He had wanted to become a seer like his mother, to which Kaleho heartedly encouraged him, just as his father had.
