Strangeness Abound [Open]
Khu felt like he had sat there for what seemed like days. He had emptied his mind of his troubles, even though he knew he had other more important things to accomplish. There was much to think about now. A new land to explore, possible new wolves to meet, and of course, his past he had to shake out of his mind. Though...what if she was here? There was no possible way. For all he knew, she was dead. Completely and utterly dead.
His mind kept wandering, now filling back as much as he'd just emptied it. A lot of things had happened in his life, and a lot of things he had regretted. She had slipped so carelessly from him. Khu had only known her for a short span of time but she was a huge part of his. Unfortunately.
Amongst his internal dialogue his brain picked up on something else - sounds of something or someone in the vicinity. How foolish! Here he was exposed and not giving a care to what was going on. Ears flicked round until he pinpointed the source of the sound, and his head and eyes traveled with them. Soon, the creature showed itself. Another. His heart skipped merely a small beat as he saw the white fur. He knew better. It wasn't her.
A small, genuine smile drifted to his features as the she-wolf proceeded closer and closer. She was a small creature, definitely not a threat and wasn't even assuming herself as one. No matter the case, he always liked the ladies. especially if they liked him. He got to all fours now and positioned himself to face her. He noticed her azure eyes look over him as she spoke.
"Ah, yes. I am new to these parts...guess you can say I'm lost. Are there others around here?" he paused for a second, realizing he should probably introduce himself, "Oh, sorry for my rudeness! My name is Khumai but you can call me Khu if you wish."
