Korinna felt a shiver crawl down her spine as a slight breeze moved in, ruffling the grey-furred wolf's thick coat. It was clear that autumn was on its last limb, with winter pressing in close behind. She knew she'd be smart to head south soon, but she'd yet to get her fill of the northernmost part of this continent and she was wary to leave before she truly felt satisfied. And right now she was quite curious about this structure, this long and crumbling stone wall that seemed to stretch on as far as she could see. The yearling narrowed her sea-green eyes, squinting as she looked far into the distance. She had no idea what purpose this structure might've once had, but now it merely separated the grassland from the more desolate tundra, the former of which she had yet to really explore. Korinna padded through the grass lazily, though her attention was captured after some time by the sound of someone - or something - scuttling in the dirt up ahead.
Her interest was instantly piqued, even if she didn't necessarily want it to be. It was something loud enough to be heard a good distance away, and further approach told her it was another wolf, most likely a female. Finally the scent grew louder, the sound of someone running hard nearby clearly audible - though she couldn't quite see anyone. Nobody was coming her direction, not that she could see, and it was only when she heard the sound zoom past her did she realize someone was on the other side of the wall. The realization came quickly, and she snapped her head upright. "Hey! You on the other side!" Korinna barked out loudly, her lazy saunter ceasing suddenly as she spun toward the wall, a look of consternation crossing her features. "You see any cracks in this thing you or I might be able to get through?" From her direction she hadn't seen a way across, and it was far too high to climb without assistance.. and yet suddenly getting to the other side seemed a mission she couldn't pass up.
