Guilt weighted Peregrine down as she listened to him. Her ears drooped, and she squirmed a bit where she stood. She had had such high hopes for the pack, and she had risked her life to achieve it... before being stolen away. She did not feel personally miffed, having a hard time attaching emotional weight to circumstance, but she did feel an enormous debt to the wolves she had promised a home. She kicked at the dried dirt of the forest floor. "Well... I'm not exactly sure. I was ambushed and forced to eat some... Oh, I don't know. Something, and it made me too woozy to do much but bumble along. Tsiry here," she said, bumping a leg against the shoulder of the lemur who had come to stand next to her, "saved me by stealing my food away while the bastards were otherwise occupied. I was weak, but I had enough wits to escape thanks to her help. I've had a friend aiding me in figuring out what they used, and tracking them down, but I seem to have lost track of her." Peregrine gave the male a sheepish grin. She was certain Roe could hold her own, but she would very much like to see her friend again all the same. In the meantime, running into Ollie was more than she could have asked for. "But I'm doing better now! I don't know what I'm doing, but physically I'm alright. What about you? Has your life taken any turns?" She was overcome with the strongest urge to apologize, but she couldn't find the words to do so. Ollie was a sweet soul, someone she rather liked spending time with, and she felt as though she had personally wronged him. Of course, as always in times of strife, her first reaction was to make light of the situation and in this case meant doing nothing at all. Maybe at some point she would have the strength of character to confront him, but it appeared that now was not that time. |
