Her response was simple and short and certainly not something that Casso minded. He wasn't someone that felt that the silence always needed to be filled with words and the falls were doing a fine job of filling the air with sound as it was. He could hear an accented tone to her words and it made him a bit more curious about her in response. He left his dual toned eyes on the cascading water until she spoke again, mentioning how she enjoyed the mountains. He gave her a glance, considering her for a moment. He could hear that heavy accent more clearly as she spoke in longer sentences where he was able to hear more of that unusual cadence. He didn't mind it at all - in fact it only helped to solidify his intrigue around the stranger.
"I enjoy them as well," he replied thoughtfully as he glanced back up at the cliffs. His relationship with mountains was a complicated one, but it still seemed to be his favorite type of terrain all the same. He felt the most himself when he was picking his way up a mountain side and it was calming to have something like that to focus on with every step he took. At the same time, they tended to put him in a mind set that he typically tried to avoid since it often let his thoughts run wild. For someone like him that was a dangerous thing to let loose, but ever since he met Elizabeth and had been following the recommendations she had given him, his mind had been far more calm. There was still a lingering rumble somewhere in the distance that was sometimes louder than others, but it felt manageable and right now that's all he could hope for.
His full attention turned to the red-marked woman beside him when she asked him a pair of questions about whether he lived here or not. He gave a small shake of his head and replied, "No, I don't live here exactly. I'm on my way to a pack that my uncle leads a bit further north so I'm just passing through. Growing up, I lived in a mountain range to the east so I still have a bit of a soft spot for the mountains." He smiled a little, that charismatic side of him coming to the surface more and more as he spoke. He enjoyed learning about the wolves around him so he was pleased to see that she seemed to be willing to chat for a little while. He still wanted to reach Winterfell before dark, but there was still some time left to enjoy. "I'm Casso, by the way. What's your name?"
"Speech" Thought
