Eris' sale was over and Kindle could release a long-held in breath as the winning bidders were declared. For many stressful moments the she-wolf was certain Eris would end up bought by the pack who'd overrun the bidding. Though the three wolves present did not collaborate their bids, it was obvious through scent alone that they arrived together. In the end Eris' freedom was pricey, and a man she'd never seen before volunteered to work with the band for half a year in exchange. Kindle was pleased that Eris had other friends among the bidders, for she herself had brought nothing of value to bid with. She spent her time searching for her family, hunting only when necessary and stockpiling no resources for trade. Eris was not the only Ademre at the viking's market however, and in the confusion Kindle had heard a familiar voice take up the bidding. It was Lament, her cousin. She did not see a spark of realization in his eyes during the auction, perhaps he didn't remember her. Kindle wanted to approach him immediately, but the threat of someone else buying Eris was too great. If the time had come where their blind cousin had been sold to another pack, Kindle needed to stay distanced from her Ademre family so she might be able to infiltrate and stage a rescue. Thankfully it was all avoided. As soon as the bidders dispersed, Kindle went off in search of Lament. He didn't get too far, and she loped up behind him. "Cousin," She breathed, quickly moving to stand before him. Her paw spoke the overwhelming emotions she felt. Desperation. Hope. Love. "I saw what happened. I am sorry I did not speak up for Eris, I planned to befriend her captors should it have come to it." There was so much more she wanted to say and do, but Kindle couldn't help but experience the awkwardness of such a time apart. Greetings and catching up could come later, Eris' state was much more important. Regardless, her paw continued to tap rapidly upon the ground betraying her nonchalance. Love, love, love, love. "Speech" "Ademre Sign" "Thinking" "You." |
