There's a bunch of rocks the size of basketballs laying around a nest.
The rocks don't look like normal rocks though, they are darker and there's a big circulair gap all around it.
It's a beautiful day, the sun is glaring and a cool breeze flows.
The nest is made out of some simple sticks, leaves and here and there some bones.
It's located in a dense forest, against the bottom side of a big cliff. The owners aren't home.
Suddenly.
A sound that would remind you of a chicken hatching from an egg appears.
It comes from one of the rocks.
a soft crack, then a loud crack.
it keeps getting louder.
After a while of the sound getting louder, one of the rocks starts to move slightly!
It whigles from left to right, the little fella in there must be full of energie.
It starts rolling, Bonk! it crashed against another egg. Both the eggs are completely fine and don't even have a scratch.
After about 3 seconds of silence the egg starts moving again.
But this time away from the other eggs!
It rolls slow and it moves inconsistently.
It's wobbling all around the place!
O no! It's about to leave the nest!
Just before it reaches the end, a huge paw stomps on it.
Claws like metal, thick, long fur as brown as the earth. The bottom jaw of the beast was protected by a sort of white gray skull armor.
Its ears were massive and they peaked right up towards the sky.
The wolf was majestic and looked prideful.
The wolf-like beast removed its paw and grabbed the egg with its mouth.
The bottom jaw protected by the armor slightly penetrated the rock as it bit the egg.
A loud crushing noise was made as the wolf was softly and carefully biting down on the sides of the rock.
Every bite was precise, the wolf knew what she was doing.
Finally after minutes of careful chewing on the egg, it cracked all the way through the middle, and it fell apart seconds later.
What came out of it is the most adorable little puppy in the world.
Beautiful blue eyes, brown gray-ish fur as plush as cotton candy.
You could see that its nails were already bigger than that off most. Also it looked like it already had a little skeletal piece at his jaw, just like his mom.
The puppy looked excited, it was ready to take on the world!
The mother wolf sniffed the little puppy and started licking. The little guy wasn't having it though, It wanted to play!
It looked around him with pure innocence.

Big round puppy eyes that screamed cute and adorable.
It let out a tiny high pitched bark, wrrraf!
and playfully bit it's mothers fur.
The mother wolf completely ignored it and kept cleaning him up.
After being completely cleaned the mother picked the puppy up with her mouth and walked with him out of the nest, leaving the other eggs unattended once again.
Through the leaves from bushes and trees, she slowly walked with the puppy still in her mouth.
The puppy was looking all around himself and with its big blue eyes it scanned every single detail. Big trees, with leaves that ranged from pink to green.
Beautiful flowers in all the colors of the rainbow, they smelled funny and like roses.
everything was completely new to it and he was loving every single second of his ride.
Suddenly a leaf hits his face! The puppy looks confused. a few water droplets are now on his snout. He looked at them as they were slowly falling.
rrrrawwff, a small cute bark was made when the water drops finally fell.
He looked confused and offended!
Oh no!!
Another bush!!!
There might be another leaf that could make him wet!
Unacceptable after his mother just cleaned him up!
The leaf comes closer to his face, but it will be different this time.
He's ready.
His face full tension, eye's are locked on the target, there's nothing that can come between the leaf and his teeth!
tchk, he got it! he got the leaf!
His face full pride, with half the leaf still sticking out of his mouth. He was the true and only victor!
Sniff sniff, sniff!
The puppy looks towards the direction his mom is heading with his nose pointed towards the sky.
It smells so good!
his ears try to go up but they won't quite listen to him, as only one of them got up.
He completely ignores the other leaves and branches, he now only has room for one thing in his mind, that smell!
A small fire is crackling in the distance, a funny looking man is standing next to it.
His back curled and red paintings on his face, while he painted his body with green paint.
not too many clothes but enough to cover everything that should be covered.
He looked calm and down to earth, almost as if he was one with mother nature.
There!
There it is!
On the fire was a small pig-like creature being rotated.
That's where the smell comes from! The puppy could tell at first glance that was his destiny!
The mother walks straight towards the crazy and old looking man, and sits right in front of him.
The man turns around.
His face full of surprise, he smiles widely, his eyes glinster as if he had become a child again.
Ohhh Baba, your first child has finally hatched
I'm so proud of you.
He puts his hands under the young wolf, and grabs him softly.
Baba lets her child lose and walks towards the pig and sits in front of it.
The old man laughs when he sees that the pup is only looking at the pig.
The old man walks towards Baba and sees upon closer inspection that she's drooling.
Like mother like son!
He said while laughing like a kid.
He grabs a big hand out of the pig?
its meat is sizzling and liquid fat is dripping off his hand onto the ground.
The old man looks completely fine, he doesn't seem to care for the heat one bit!
Here you go Baba, as he throws the handful of meat on the ground.
Within seconds Baba is eating the meat.
The old man takes a little bit of meat from the pig again, only this time with just two of his fingers.
He puts it right in front of the puppy.
The old man says, Do you want this? Here you go.
The puppy instantly gulps the meat down, it didn't even take him a full second to eat it.
The old man laughs out loud and wipes a tear away.
Food is the only thing that motivates you lot.
He proceeds to feed the both of them and eats a little himself as well.
When the three of them finally are full Baba lays down and starts to sleep.
The old man however picks up the little wolf, and holds him in front of his face.
The old man looks happy and sincere, as if he is holding his own grandson.
The puppy looks him right in his eyes, he yawns and opens his mouth as far as he can.
The old man looks at him and says, I will name you Blue, after your eyes.
Blue looks at him, and turns his head sideways,
he clearly doesn't understand a thing the old man says.
That doesn't stop the old man from talking though.
Since you are an incredible species that's willed all over the empire, I will take care of you!
As you'll grow and hunt more you'll grow stronger, no one knows how it works exactly but I think I've figured it out!
You adapt and gain powers from Gaya as you hunt in different ways.
So grow big and strong fast, and explore the forest as the apex you'll soon become!
while the old man was in his dialog, the puppy slowly slumbered away until it finally fell asleep.
It had been such a long 3 hours of being awake, time for bed.
