Not to find

The boy seemed to marvel at the beautiful complexity of the language, but at his question she simply shrugged. "Most do. It is no more my native language than is what you call Common - most of my knowledge of the language came to me as a yearling rather than a child. My family mostly speaks a language you would call German, which does indeed have a word for everything."
He thanked her for her information, scant as it was, and gave his name. Politely, Katja tilted her muzzle in acknowledgement. "I am Katja Finnvi. It has certainly been more of a pleasure to meet you than I would have expected," she added with blunt words and a thoughtful twist to her muzzle. She would not have expected to find this polite, curious young warrior from such a pack.
His next words, however, instantly put her hackles up and showed a glint of ivory within her muzzle. Vereux. "I am familiar with Vereux Armada," she rumbled in what was far closer to snarl than may have been entirely fair to the boy, who was not the wolf she wanted to snarl at. "He was a member of my pack, and chose to betray us after I put forth great effort to teach him and welcome him. He is an honorless cur and a spy," she spat. A sharply drawn breath as she forced down the rage, and schooled herself to regard the boy with less rancor.
