Squinting through the growth, Esa could see movement up ahead, a white coat flashing amongst greenery. At first she flicked her ears, fearing it was her friend, but as the wolf drew closer, Esa could see the feminine features of a she-wolf, assuring her it was not who she thought; she wondered who she was about to meet, and hoped they were as kind as Miksa had described them as. The raven-black femme sat and drew her paws together, waiting for the wolf to approach her - the other wolf's stride would quickly bring them face to face, the fresh, plump prey between them. She noticed at once how elegant and graceful this young woman was - things that Esa had been taught in her youth, when she had shown such promise as an heir. But she had long outgrown that role since leaving her family's pack. She wasn't tame like she had been, following the rules and meeting expectations. It showed in her weathered paws and uneven coat flecked with debris from the wilds. To her it was freedom, and a life worth living. But even freedom got lonely sometimes, and that was why she'd come today. She'd met a friend, a friendship which had become dear to her, and she would only find him within the boundaries of this pack. Esa dipped her head in return to the female's polite and eloquent greeting. "Good afternoon," she replied with less formality, "I have a request for the leader of Threar. You see, I met a friend and he's from here. So I guess I'm hoping I might be allowed to visit him from time to time, without dragging him away from home and disrupting his duties too much. He said you can see the ocean from part of the pack's territory... I hoped to see it with him one day." She took a breath after explaining her reasoning for approaching Threar. Then she realized she didn't know who this lady was - she could be the pack's leader for all Esa knew. After all, wasn't it usually the highest ranking wolves that approached potential intruders? "By the way, my name's Esarosa," she introduced herself quickly, dipping her head again, "And I brought a gift... I just caught it, outside of your borders, of course." She nosed forward the fresh prey, then lifted her emerald eyes to reach the duo-hued gaze of the other woman, offering a friendly smile. |
