Drífa watched quietly as the rest of Winterfell filtered in, spareing a moment to nod at Kirsi and Belle. They were the few wolves she'd met. Shorty after the meeting began and she turned her full attention to Acere. He started with introducing the children and Drífa smiled at the youthful faces, feeling a slight pang in her stomach. She and Agnarr had always wanted children but then the war used it's last breath to drag her love from her. She wouldn't entertain the thought of remarrying. There was only one Agnarr. She listened as he spoke of a lack of training and she couldn't say she was surprised. Though she was new to Winterfell the volcano had likely interrupted much of daily life. It was hard to think about training when survival suddenly escalated in importance. She prayed the next winter would not be so harsh. In the meantime though she was happy to offer her skills to any that wished to train in healing and crafting. The next order of business was news to her. Being a new member she had not heard of Hjarrandi or that the pack would be raiding in the name of this mysterious group. They were to raid Ashen and Abaven. Again, she did not know these packs. She'd been living alone in the north since Fyri's fall. She supposed she would need to get more familiar with pack politics. Drífa took note as Acere stated that Abaven was their friend. Her head titled to the side. Raiding an ally did not sound like the best idea but she was unaware of the circumstances that led Winterfell to this point. One of the pups voiced her concerns and Drífa took the moment to chime in. She cleared her throat. "I wish to voice my thoughts as well. For those who don't know me I am Drífa. I specialize in healing and crafting so any pups that wish to apprentice in such things please let me know. I am more than happy to share my knowledge. "As to this raid. I am not a fighter but I wish to bring a stock of supplies and set up near where we plan to raid so that warriors can receive swift medical attention. Now, I confess I do not know anything about Abaven, Ashen, or our political status with the packs of Boreas. But, if I may make a suggestion Acere, could we not send someone to notify Abaven ahead of time and let them know of our situation? That would make it an official training exercise and Hjarrandi would be none the wiser." What they didn't know wouldn't hurt them. Let them think it a true raid. Winterfell and Abaven would know better. "Am I correct in thinking this is for show? Or does Hjarrandi expect spoils from this endeavor?" That would complicate things but if Winterfell needed to be indebted to anyone she would rather they be indebted to an ally than whatever their relationship with this band was. Perhaps Abaven could 'loan' them supplies that Winterfell could promise to replace at a later time. "I talk" | 'I think' |
