A woman much larger than herself, nearly Ricky's age but not quite so young, arrived in short order. It would appear that Tsiry had been on to something after all! Peregrine maintained a respectful distance from her borders. The multicolored woman would introduce herself as Avalon, claiming to be a Chief or something. Peregrine took it to mean alpha and gave her a quick bow of the head. She wasn't one for overt displays of respect to wolves she barely knew, but neither would be jeopardize her own agenda by being too flippant. "Greetings yourself," she said back with an easy smile. This woman got right down to the meat of her purpose, Peregrine liked that. No fluff, no pomp, just business. "My name is Peregrine, and I was hoping to discuss making a deal of sorts." She looked up to see Tsiry had clambered closer, and watched as the orange ball of fluff and ire scampered down the tree trunk nearest now that she had seen their newest arrival had no immediate plans of violence. Peregrine gestured to her and her smile grew, unable to restrain the mercurial gleam that came into her eyes. Most wolves were surprised to see a lemur anywhere above the land bridge far to the south, and many had never seen one at all. She watched the older woman carefully for her reaction. "This is Tsiry, my partner in crime." The lemur scoffed and groused, "The last time you introduced me I was your servant and now I'm a criminal. The injustice." Peregrine ignored her and forged on, taking a deep breath before launching into the spreech she had spent all last night turning over in her mind. "She and I have been gathering a band of like-minded wolves and teaching the art of trading as we travel. I was wondering if your pack may be willing to strike a deal with our band. If it suits you, we would be able to bring you far off resources in exchange for materials found in your lands, perhaps asking for an occasional escort during peak harvest times. Of course there would be a portion paid to your pack and we would be happy to teach any interested in our ways. In fact, I'd be happy to answer any questions right now," she finished with a lopsided grin, a gentle sort of sarcasm coating her words as she wrapped up. She only hoped that this woman wasn't too serious of a sort, but what with her quick introduction perhaps she was out of luck with this one. "Tsiry" |
