I would give my life

The white wolf flicked his half gray tail absentmindedly, letting his amber stare hover over the dark wolf. The other wolf sat down, and Saturn watched him get comfortable. Good, a comfortable wolf was less of a threat. When his new acquaintance spoke he let one certain word roll over in his mind. Departure. What an odd word to use. It reminded him of how some wolves spoke of death as a departure to the next world, forever giving the word a morbid ring. He noted to not bring up the wolfs father ever.



He took a moment to decide his response to the question. "I felt a call to leave," he said simply. He would rather leave another wolf with questions than over detail them. Anyway, knowledge truly had proved to be power in Saturns experience, so the more vague he was, the better he was off.



Saturn eyed the monotone wolf, noticing the silver hue and blue color of each of his eyes. An odd combination, considering two silver eyes was incredibly uncommon. He supposed that is why the wolf was named Oddity. He liked the strange name a little more when he realized that. He liked when names had meaning. If his name had any meaning to his parents, he certainly hadn't been able to figure it out.



"Cercina, is that what this land is named? Have you been here long?" Saturn asked. How long this rogue wolf had lived would indicate to Saturn some important things, like the life expectancy of a lone wolf dangling just outside of borders of the nearby packs.
