So close yet so far

She didn't know what to really expect as she walked away from Abaven's border and toward the huge mountain that loomed up ahead. As she got closer to the volcano she could see the noticeable change in the scenery as the plant life seemed to disappear around the base of the volcano and as she looked up the steady up hill slope it only looked more blackened and lifeless as it went up. Some of the plant life behind her had started to creep up closer to the volcano, but it certainly wasn't enough to cover up what she assumed was the aftermath from the explosion Áskell had mentioned.

Her wide blue gaze was still curious as she lingered with nervous excitement at the edge of the pack's borders. The weather had been kind of bad the last several days so it had taken her longer than she had intended to come and see the friend she made by the lake so she hoped he would still want to show her around. She lifted her muzzle and gave a quiet howl to call for Áskell, hopping he was somewhere near by. She supposed she should probably call their alpha as well to get permission to be here, but she kind of hoped maybe Áskell would get here first and he could help mediate.
