Listening to her mother as she spoke with erect ears, it appeared no wolf of Borealis was confined to the pack. All this time she had thought it would be a great difficulty persuading the alphess - her own mother - to let her leave, though now it seemed so easy to let go. Could anyone just pack their bags and leave? Surely it wasn't that simple, though who else would want to leave? If she hadn't ever met the boy beside her, she would have stayed in Borealis without a doubt.
Her heart couldn't help but to pound when the rainbow-pelted woman announced their release from the pack, exchanging well wishes for their travel and future. It seemed the two other canines - who she guessed were Riv's siblings - were also coming with them, and she didn't mind that. If only her siblings could come with her, though that seemed impossible with her brother the heir and her sisters scarce within the pack. It didn't matter anyway; she'd probably continue to harass them. Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment at her friend's words, saying that he would take care of her. That was...nice? "So long, Mum," she farewelled with a small smile. "I'll visit, and that's a promise."
