In Your Head They're Still Fighting

There was very little hesitation in the other wolf's voice when she spoke, and the boy didn't know quite enough to be aware that she might not be trustworthy. She wasn't that much bigger than him, after all, so she couldn't be too much older. If it was fine for her to go, then why not him? "Um, yeah, I found a wolf that could make it for me and I gave them meat from a deer and a turkey for it." she told him rather flatly. Her voice was very different from everyone else's, he realized a little late. The way she pronounced her vowels was distinctly different from his mother, or his sisters. He had heard a few other wolves talking, some of whom had their own strange ways of speaking, but he was unfamiliar with her accent. He swayed a little where he stood, a side to side shift of his weight as he mulled this over. He didn't have those things, but he could probably find some cool stuff around the shrine. While he was thinking, he almost missed the pointed look she directed to their surroundings, before shifting away from him. "I should probably get back to my run. I've gotta train hard now." she said, and he perked up almost instantly. That sounded cool! Delicate crown tilted to one side, curiosity sparkling in two toned eyes. "What are you training for?" he asked softly, fuzzy banner beginning to sway excitedly at his rear. He always wanted to learn new things, and see what the world around him offered up. "Mother says its very important to train hard, and never get lazy." he added with a solemn expression. At least, that was what he'd picked up from her lessons so far. They were always making sure to learn their prayers perfectly, and watch Obi mix the herbal oils for the shrine. He wondered if this wolf was a great warrior, like some of his family, or if she was still learning. "speech" |
