Fugue couldn't help but smile as the small canine spouted off the girl's introduction with a manner of pride and elegeance. He had never seen or heard anything like that and it was really quite a show. As soon as the lady bowed and showed a bit of humor, Fugue let out a light chuckle and winked at the dame.
"Bravo, Bravo miss Raisa. The name truly fits you, with all of its titles. You carry the name well, Princess."
His golden eyes were filled with mirth and good feeling for the first time in many seasons. Who knew that an introduction would leave him in such a pleasent mood? As his mind refocused on the issue at hand, his smile faded and he nodded to the queen.
"Well since you are royalty, and so easy to get along with, I'd gladly hunt more rabbits for you in the future." He smiled at her, knowing that she was perfectly capable of hunting her own prey and knowing that she still had not seen his bad side. Who knows where their friendship may stand after his first outbreak? Only time would tell.
"Lets start a pack then Princess."

The man seemed pleased by her introduction, and Raisa figured that as long as someone was, perhaps it was worth something after all. She shrugged. To her, still it really made no difference. Titles meant little, unless they spoke for something. She had nothing left, at the moment. Fugue's desire to help her though, was a pleasant surprise. Who could have thought that this day would turn out so? She chuckled. "Yes, let's, and hope it's as easy to do as to speak of." Where would they even start? She supposed that getting off this damnable mountain would be a good place to start. Perhaps for the unhinged, like she and Fugue, it was well enough, but in truth she wanted a strong, noble kingdom. Not a kingdom of the ill and frayed. Raisa looked down the slope, at the distant forests that sprawled below. Was her future out there. "Well," she said finally. "I suppose we better get started."
