I don't care

She gave a sage nod of understanding, seeing a little of the lost kid she had been in him. Though she frowned and shook her head as he asked if she would head further into the forest. “I don’t need to, I already went to the spot he had found me last time. Wherever he is, he doesn't haunt me” and that was really all that mattered. She already had enough in her past plaguing her.

She snorted, why would he think she needed saving? She could take care of herself. Mostly, kinda, maybe. So what if the last time the dire appeared she had needed rescuing. “A guy called Iarlaith helped me chase him off last time, but I don’t need saving.” she said with indignation.

“Anyway, i’m going to go find something to hunt, maybe catch you around kid” she said, lifting a paw in a wave. She was hungry, and she had skills to improve on. Alastor had given her some tips that time they had hunted together, and she needed to put them to good use.
