He had been laying down on the shore and relaxing getting up his strength before he would need to patrol. Now that his den was finished he was looking forward to sleeping in it tonight. It would be the first time in a while that he would have a solid and comfortable den to spend his nights in. He still felt it wouldn't be the same, still lost within the slight depression of loosing his precious Ilona. He was getting older now and he honestly felt that he would never experience being a father or having a family of his own. Closing his eyes he tried to suppress his thoughts to push them back so he could keep himself from reverting to a depressed mood. He wanted to do his best to focus on this new pack and try to give his life a fresh new start.

Dipping his head to her in respect he shifted his body so he could comfortably face her.
"I'm Inverno. Your looking well today," he replied.
