Late in the evening, after the school day, Kiernan trekked down the path through a thin forest with an excited-looking Fen trotting at his side.
At that moment, the sun began to set, casting a warm orange glow over the trees, and when they arrived at a small clearing, they saw a bird perched on a rock.
It turned its beady eyes towards them, and when it saw Fen, it clearly became scared as it unfurled its wing, ready to fly away.
"Well, let's see what you can do, Fen—Howl of the Eclipse."
Fen opened his maw and let out a mighty howl that shook the very ground beneath them.
It was a sound that shouldn't have come from a small doggy like him but instead from a king lion that ruled over the land.
The bird's wings stopped moving, and it looked like it was frozen in fear. Its eyes widened as it stared at the tiny creature emitting such a powerful sound.
"Loyal Fang!"
Kiernan shouted.
"Rawr!"
