Zero/Introduction

Zero. It's a family name, not that I know my family. My mother called me Loudest, and my father only saw me a handful of times before he died, which was the best thing that could have happened to him. I was the only pup in my litter to change, and as far as I know I'm the only one still alive, my mother included. But blood runs, living or dead, and if you follow it upriver you figure out where you're from sooner or later. And now I know.
