He had gone to the Snowfalls... Well, gone back to them. He waited... And he waited... He called. Searched. But finally the black and white male would give up. He would start heading away from the north. The first time he had looked for Mercianne and Knight, finding them gone, he thought maybe, just maybe, that they had gone on an extended hunt or something together. But going back the second time and finding that they weren?t there... Not even a single scent... Finalized it. His mother... Was gone. He would heave another sigh, not even really sure where he was anymore. Gaze would lift, seeing a cave. It wasn?t home... But he figured he could do with a rest. Snow was falling... It stuck to his fur and froze his limbs. He would give a soft sigh, coming inside n a heap on the floor, a depressed sigh leaving him. He would curl up a bit, whining loudly. ?Mom... Where did you go?? He would wonder. He supposed making his way back to the island was his best bet... At least Silveris would give him some sort of company. "Speech"

The orange and cr?me colored female walked through the landscape, her paws leaving marks in the terrain and she sighed as she walked. She had been alone for a while, and she wished she could at least have someone to talk to, that was when a scent hit her. It was a young male, about a year old or slightly older, she walked forward and saw him alone, a sigh and a small smile coming on her maw as she approached the young brute. Her topaz pools looked into his eyes and she would wag her tail slightly to show kindness and sincerity.

"Hello, why are you here alone? Aren't you with your mother?" She asked him with a slight tilt of her head. Her tail stopped wagging when she could sense the sadness that came from him, and she wished that there was something she could do to help this young male out. She didn't like seeing anyone sad, especially if she had caused their sadness.

"I can walk with you to your destination. You at least will not be lonely," she said as she hoped she had cheered him up a little bit.

The year and a half old male would lift his head, cyan eyes meeting the fae. He would give a deep sigh, ears remaining in their lowered position as he looked at her. She had come out of the snow as well, into the cave just as he had. Why was he alone? The question broke his heart to think of the answer. He would shake his head, voice cracking some as he began to speak. ?I?m not even entirely sure of where I?m going...? What if Silveris wasn?t at the island like he thought? He would give a sigh. He would lower his gaze, shivering some. ?I know where my brothers are, two of them anyway... But I don?t know where my mom is anymore... Knight... And my other siblings have been missing for a very, very long time...? His lip would tremble as he said this. ?I don?t know what is going to happen now... I met a friend on an island but... It?s a bit of journey away from here... And with the snow falling as it is it might be too risky to try and cross through the territories.? Emery would lay his head upon his paws again, giving a deep sigh. ?You should probably rest too... It looks like it might get worse and you don?t want to get caught out in the storm.? He would sigh once more. ?My name is Emery by the way... What?s yours?? "Speech"

She would look to the young brute with topaz eyes, a smile spreading across her face. She liked the male and she also felt sorry for him for she has wondered where her brother was now. It had been a year since she had seen him, and with a heavy heart she lied down beside him to show kindness and to help keep him warm. "When someone is gone, they are never truly gone, they are still with you in your heart," she smiled and placed her head on her paws as her tail thumped onto the stone floor of the cave.

"My name is Huata," she told him as she closed her eyes. She was not asleep, she was still awake and she would be with the brute for the company if he ever needed it. She did not like to see anyone down as she hummed a small tune her mother used to sing to her to help her sleep.

Like her new best friend had thought, Silveris was not at the islands, because she had heard about the strange disease infecting a few wolves. She needed to see if Emery was okay. White paws carried her carefully to where she saw the black and white male. Shivers went up and down her body, but she kept moving, she had to keep moving. A soft whimper escaped her jaws, and her body shook as she coughed. She hadn't stopped moving, afraid she would freeze, but now, she stopped. Her chest heaved as she struggled for breath, her body frail. She knew she was sick, but she had to check on Emery. Finally, the girl struggled into the den, snowflakes covering her like tiny white spiders. Silveris shivered, although she wasn't sure if it was from her sickness, or the thought of spiders. Mismatched eyes went around the den, until she saw him. A gasp escaped her jaws. Emery! Shivering again, Silveris struggled to talk, her voice raspy. "Emery......You're okay....." That was all she could manage. The brown and white tried to slide to the cave floor, but it was more of a fall. Silveris managed a soft whimper, and looked at the cream wolf, before wagging her tail weakly at Emery. "I'm glad you're safe. Have you heard? There's a new disease. From what I've heard......" The brown girl thought of Loccian, in that minute, and rose to her paws, body shivering as she let out a loud yelp. "Mom.....I gotta go see if mother's okay......" With claws digging into the ground, Silveris struggled over to the entrance, then sighed and struggled back. Her sides heaved as she crawled over to Emery, wagging her tail at her friend. Talk like this

The femme would, much to Emery?s surprise, lay down beside him, giving him some added warmth. It was welcome... He had been out in the wind and snow for so long that warming up would definitely do him some good. The young male would give a small nod at her words, though he wasn?t too sure how he felt about it, really. ?I suppose so...? Still... He worried about them. How he hadn?t even been able to say goodbye. It hurt a lot... And so much worry filled him... Were they okay? The thought that his mother might even be dead crossed his mind, filling his heart with dread. He wouldn?t be able to bear it. ?Huata... That?s a neat name.? For the moment Emery too, would close his eyes. He wasn?t aiming to fall asleep, but just resting for a little while, trying to ease his thoughts, might be a great help. Ears would twitch as the orange and cream fae next to him began to hum to herself, a tune that was rather calming. Was it a lullaby perhaps? He had been so caught up on it that he would not hear the crunching of the snow. But suddenly he would hear a voice, a familiar voice, and he would lift his head to see Silveris standing at the entrance of the cave. She might not have seen Huata, but she had seen him. Emery would quickly get to his paws, rushing to Silveris? side. She let out such a soft whimper... Covered in snow... How long had she been out there? She didn?t look so good either. Emery would frown, worry clear in his eyes. ?Silveris... How long have you been out in the snow?? The mention of a new disease, for the moment, had been ignored. But the moment she rose, letting out a yelp, Emery moved to try and help her. She didn?t get too far before struggling to get back inside the cave. He would help her lay down, a soft whine leaving him. ?Huata, do you mind helping us? I need you to lay on Silveris? other side, please.? Cyan eyes would look pleadingly at the other wolfess before laying next to the brown femme. ?You?re so cold... You could have froze to death...? He would whimper out, looking to her with a worried gaze. "Speech"
