black cats across your path {ana/celestial}

The Cleric had been enjoying the patrol up until Laisren’s call for Regulus came. As he trotted along at his cousin’s side, he craned his neck, lifting his head a bit higher to peer over the shrouded layer of mist to catch a glimpse of who it was that had warranted the call.

As Regulus took his place, Paladin moved to the opposite side of the passage from Justice, glancing up at his sibling with a slight grin before turning to gaze at the two wolves. Their scents said pack, and they also bore a resemblance, both in markings and in scent that said family. And from the woman, he could tell that she had had pups, either her own or from pup-sitting.

From the postures in his sister and Laisren, he guessed that they had not been behaving in a fashion that pleased either wolf, and he shifted his weight slightly, settling covertly into a battle-ready stance. The howl from Laisren would no doubt attract more of the pack, so if this turned nasty, he was prepared to join in.
