What If There Were No Heavens?

Walk | Talk | Think The grey woman appeared friendly and personable, and Gale was glad to have company of that sort. Her own dealings with others outside of her pack lands were typically few and far between, most of her runs past the border done too quickly to offer many chances for interaction, and those that she did tend to meet were really just chance encounters that never went further. It would be nice, she decided, to have a little chat with someone not of the Elementas clan before her brother arrived to get things back on the track of business. "Nothing too important," Gale assured as she took a seat and listened to the wolf's short introduction and her offer to let the Aertus sit in on the conversation. There was a moment when she might have objected - politics and the like were entirely outside the realm of her expertise - but before she could really make any final decision her brother arrived. He seemed pleased to see her, and she beamed over at him while her wispy tail wagged against the ground. That's right, I'm watching the borders too, she thought toward him, proud of herself for actually being attentive for once and not simply running about with the utter carelessness of the wind; she could be responsible when she wanted to be. Glacier greeted the grey wolf Surreal by name and added a quick introduction for Gale - right, she really should have led with her name first - before he directed their conversation toward whatever it was that Surreal had come all the way to their home to discuss. Feeling as if leaving right then would have been too rude, Gale merely put on a smile and stayed in place, taking up the wolf's offer to let her listen in. And then wished she had not. As the information was relayed, Gale could feel her smile slide from her expression and a growing sense of worry to twist inside of her gut. Nothing about it sounded stable and comfortable. Even the quick mention of the word fighting caused the Elementas girl to quickly glance at her brother for guidance. Donostrea had always been a happy pack, left to their own devices and happily too. It was easy to forget the rest of the world was not quite so peaceful, and she dreaded the thought of being drawn into their squabbles. |
