Come out for a spell

"Pssst..." Kaija stood at the borders of a pack that was definitely not her own, trying to get the attention of someone who - by her calculations - likely wouldn't hear her no matter how long she stood here and did this. The thick black darkness that hung over the lands didn't help her cause either. It was a damp night, the sort that threatened rain without ever bringing any, and with the sky littered with clouds there was little to light her way. Somehow she'd made it all the way here, annoyed that she'd had to take a rather long detour around another pack's territory, before she caught wind of Ophie's scent. She lived here, she had to! All she could really tell about this place was that it was grassy, like really grassy, and... well, that was it. And Ophie lived here, which was all she really cared about. Her silver gaze swept over the dim plains, trying to decide what else she could do to get her friend's attention.

She was careful to not step paw over the borders, as tempting as the thought was. Like most of her ancestors, Kaija found the whole prospect of lands and territories kinda foolish, but she wasn't stupid enough to push her limits without knowing what she was getting into first. Ophie had told her about her family, how they were hard-working warriors, and Kaija had no interest in starting something. That was why she didn't immediately let loose a howl for her... someone calling in the dead of night was pretty stupid, she knew that, but maybe lurking around in the dark quietly wasn't the best idea either.

Oh well - too late to turn back now. "Psssst, Ophie..... pssst... it's me, Kaija... psssssst," Kaija half-whispered as she continued her trek alongside the clearly marked borders, prowling for signs of life. Worst case scenario she could just wait until the sun came up and try to catch her when she left, the key word being when. Maybe her plan wasn't a fantastic one but she decided to play it by ear, but first she'd walk the whole border and see if she had any luck before moving on to the next plan, which didn't exist yet.
