A Struggling Healer

Rhyme’s eyes sparkled amusedly as the lioness exclaimed her surprise at the amount of wolves that lived within Abavens borders. Not that he expected that the population would remain that high for very long. Acere was taking himself, Ignis, and Actaea when he had his pack. He also wondered how long Lucine’s family might linger here. His eyes continued to warm to her as the dark pelted lioness continued with her speech. She seemed to know all the right words to say, and were she a wolf Rhyme wouldn’t hesitate to invite her in with open arms. She was a lioness though.

Shaye only took a few moments to think about the lionesses words before she had come up with a brilliant plan. She had a way to make everyone happy. Cannival just needed to behave during her probationary period and she was welcome to roam throughout Abaven’s lands. He wouldn't have been able to come up with a different answer. If the lioness had been telling the truth Rhyme had high hopes for her future here. He gave her an encouraging smile, his silent support for Shaye’s offer and hopeful for the lion’s answer.
