That's Different

Kar counted his blessings that this bear was not at all like the ones that lived in the mountains of Caelum. She was being very helpful and kind. Such things had been scare to the gray wolf in his travels. The beast that he met that were not of his own kind tended to be on the more aggressive side. They chased him from their territories with bared fangs and sharp claws. But this bear wasn't like that all. She was gifted with more intelligence and a kinder heart. Yes, this was a kind of bear that Kar definitely liked.

The smirk that crossed the bear's muzzle reminded him of how his sister once looked at him. A knowing smirk, but one that also held a sort of playful goodwill towards him. The wolf twitched his ears as she said her name. Zanire. It was a pretty name. It definitely suited her. All settled down now that he knew Zanire wasn't an enemy, he calmly spoke with her.

"I don't think I will be entering a pack so soon, to be honest with you, Zanire. I have been wandering for roughly a year, and I wish to make certain of where I choose to settle down, if anywhere." Kar looked off in the direction of the pack, scenting the breeze before turning his gaze back to Zanire.

"Bears tend to live on their own, if I remember correctly." He smiled brightly, his tail swishing as he prepared to ask her the next question. "Since you speak the wolfen language perhaps you wouldn't be against traveling with one? I'd love to have a companion, especially one who knows a bit about Alacritis. If you wouldn't mind it, I'd love to travel with you."
