Hopeful

Aw, poor girl. Why did Ash immediately feel the need to protect this girl? She explained that she was kept in the dark for a long time and that she was lost and that she couldn't dig a den. Ashmedai's ears flattened for a moment before springing back up, his tail flopping from one side to the other lazily.

"Well, you sure don't really seem like you should be the loner type to be honest. Who's this Nyko? Maybe I can help ya find him... her?"

Keeping on his stomach, Ashmedai scooted towards the woman, aiming to lay beside her if she'd have him.

"It's a little late now, so I don't think we should go looking for Nyko really. How about I stand watch and you can get some rest. Actually- that's probably a strange offer coming from me, huh?"

Ashmedai laughed a little, he was giant and probably not really the least intimidating wolf to be sleeping around.

"Alright, you don't gotta sleep. We can keep watch together. If I need light, you can help me out, right?" Ashmedai tossed the girl a wink.

"When we find your friend, how about we look into finding a place for y'all to settle down? There's a lot of packs here."
