Her light amber eyes hid the darker emotions she felt at any given time and it was coming into effect at that time. The determination had grown inside of her to get her own land with her own people, regardless of her means of taking it. Her dark fur was well kept and nicely groomed flat against her fur as she pushed through the terrain. She held a slightly uneasy look because she had no allies inside of the strange new land that she now placed her paws on. She needed to change that but she liked to believe that she wasn't too good at making good friends. She was pretty good at that but her inner ego didn't like to think that for perhaps a better reason.


The sun was high in the sky as she had pushed towards the edge of the pines of the woods. The Sparse Pines were marked fiercely with the scent of a pack and it almost intrigued her. She stayed a few full wolf lengths from the borders and raised her muzzle as if to howl, but she put it down and remained silent. Who were they and what were they made of? She had a feeling that she would soon find out... or maybe not. Should she find a pack before the first storms of winter shook the lands? She had no idea what she was going to do so she just stood there, gaping almost at it as if in shock. She wondered what to do and she continued her thinking. What would the lord of light do? What would the seven gods do? What should she do? Who the hell knew anymore? So many questions plagued her at that time and they weren't making it easy for her to decide.

The tawny woman had been busy since her daughter had left. Her heart was heavy, so she worked tirelessly to keep her mind from dwelling on the thoughts that had been gnawing at her. Was she a horrible mother? Was there a reason her first litter had been stillborn? Was this her fault? A howl broke into her pathetic mental ramblings, and she realized she was very close to the source of it. Moving towards it at an easy pace, her eyes came to rest on another she-wolf. Eris inclined her head ever so slightly in greeting as she drew to a halt at the border. "Welcome to Glaciem stranger. My name is Eris, an Overseer here. What can I do for you?" Her tones were soft and soothing, she had no reason to show aggression to what seemed to be a curious mind, and as Sendoa had said, the pack needed more wolves. She settled back on her haunches, her tail wrapping around her tiny frame as she waited for the other to reply to her. Her golden eyes studied the frame of the other, soft but probing. Eris couldn't deny that from looks alone the other wolf looked capable, yet she wondered what she was capable of. Speech...

Cass did not have to wait long before a pack member showed up for the interrogation. She examined the wolf named Eris with extreme interest as she tried to tell what the pack was made of just from her appearance, stature, tone. It all played a role in overall pack appearance, each member being fit and up in shape was a good thing but only focusing on the physical aspect could be potentially dangerous. "I am Cassiopeia and I've called you out of curiosity of your pack." She stated with a small bow to her head. The lean but muscular fae looked at Eris, though not directly in the eye because that would be disrespectful, with a rather curious look. What was the pack even called again?


Glaciem. It was a stone cold name and so she posed a question to the female before her. "What is your pack about?" She asked the rather broad question in hopes of getting some answer as to overwhelming strength or something of the sorts. The young, former princessa pushed with an inquisitive look for an answer. In the back of her mind she was formulating plots to find some other kind of pack, one that didn't necessarily have the strongest leader base to take over. It was all in due time and so she would work with what she had at that time; a pack in front of her who might be willing to take her in until she could get her plan off the ground. She drew in a deep breathe and held it as she waited for an answer. She slowly breathed through her nose, only when she needed it. Cass was tense, but then again she was always tense as if watching and expecting a fight. Habit she supposed after that fateful day where she had nearly been killed.

	Within minutes the stranger had identified herself, as Cassiopeia. Eris mentally noted the name, making sure to remember it. Cassiopeia said she called to find out more about Glaciem, and Eris relaxed, that meant there wasn't trouble to disturb Sendoa or Isardis with, and Gods only knew that Isardis didn't need to be disturbed. The healer, nodded slightly, giving the girl a warm smile before she would open her jaws to speak, "Glaciem is the strongest kingdom in Alacritis- as we proved in the victory we held in our last siege. It is ruled by Isardis and Sendoa Armada. I am an Overseer here, which is kind of like what other packs call a beta. Glaciem is home to fighters, hunters, thinkers and healers, like myself. The empire spans over four territories, the pines here, the marble wash, the polar sound, and the mile-high woods. New wolves are usually accepted that can bring potential to the land, and won't laze about." She briefly explained, though she wasn't exactly sure how to answer the girls question. "Do you have any particular questions?" Eris would ask her kindly, hoping the girl would steer the conversation to state her true purpose here. "Off the record and on a personal level, Glaciem is my home. The wolves here are good at heart, and I really cannot imagine being anywhere else." She stated her some-what truth. The only thing that would make Glaciem better.. well she didn't want to dwell on that. She would then wait, wondering if she had answered the lass's question well enough to suffice and wondering if this lean female would join the ranks of Glaciem to better herself.
