Nellie

Nellie had always been a difficult child who only did what she wanted when she wanted to. But her mother knew how to keep her dead in line. She eventually grew accustomed to having to play a part in the pack and actually do things of use.

She was an avid follower of the silent God and this provided a lot of incentives for her to do as she was told.

She had just taken a long afternoon nap and now was praying quietly by the water, silently hoping that this pesky little cub would stop bothering her, Night shade was messing with her tail and she closed her eyes to pray. Batting and biting at it every time she moved the appendage away from her she jumped higher to get to it.

Instead of getting annoyed like she usually would she decided to take this as an exercise in patience and took a deep breath trying to ignore the pipsqueak interrupting her. It took her a few moments to get back into a calm enough head space in order to focus on her prayers once more but she managed it.

She focused on the sounds of the birds in the trees, the sound of water rippling not too far infront of her, she even managed to invasion the fun the little rascal was having batting her tail, making sure to appreciate everything that the silent God had given her was very important in keeping her anger in check when dealing with small annoyances.

It had taken her years of practise but she was now getting the hang of it and managed to pray properly even though Night Shade didn't let up her ruthless attack on Nellie's tail.
