steady course

I can see why they would, he thought harshly - and perhaps unfairly, but Artur had always been one to judge quickly - to himself, keeping his expression neutral. Even aside from her odd appearance, she looked like she would have to take two steps to every ordinary wolf's stride, let alone a wolf his height. She would slow a group down at best, and be a liability at worst. "I'm afraid not," he said instead. "My pack is in the south west of Boreas. Valhalla." He didnt ask if she had heard of it, because he doubted many had. The pack kept to itself anyway, but the name change was quite recent as well. It irritates him to introduce himself as being part of Aurielle's pack, being known as one of them, but it would not be for much longer. "My name is Artur Adravendi." He didnt ask her if she had heard of him either, or act as though she should have. Someday his name would be well known, but he knew that right now he was just another unknown yearling who had not yet proven himself. But he would. "Perhaps I can assist you in finding the wolves who... misplaced you."
