got something to do

It was perfectly fine with Haru if Spirit was more on the shy side. He wasn't the sort to judge another based off something like that, and besides, as far as he could tell this other wolf didn't seem like he was trying to avoid him or the friendly conversation he was offering. If anything they seemed hesitantly interested, and that was good enough for Haru.

"This place... seems nice. Maybe when it's not all frozen."

Haru chuckled lightly and nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it's definitely nicer in the spring. The snow never seems to get too deep here though, so if you've got thick fur like me and can handle the wind, it's not a bad place to hang out." he agreed. Despite the land being gripped by winter there were still pleanty of rabbits to chase and deer to stalk, and it was a popular place to find racing partners thanks to the mostly flat and open landscape.

As Spirit went on to reveal his own purpose for being here, Haru would hum thoughtfully. "I don't think you'll find any around here, but if you really need them I know of a place just on the other side of the bifrost. It's called The Gods Garden- it's literally covered in herbs. Not sure what kind are there, but you'd have much better luck finding what your after."

One of the few benefits he'd had as a loner was that he had the entire world to call his home, and he'd done quite a bit of wandering in the three years of his life he'd lived so far. The southern continent was still in the throws of summer if he was correct, and at this time of year it would be teeming with life where this meadow was not. He'd seen it as a great advantage that the Ashen -and even this valley- weren't too far from the Bi-Frost, meaning trips along the landbridge would still be possible even after he joined with a group. Having access to a place like that was extremely benefitial, and he wouldn't forget it. The Gods Garden in particular was a hotbed for herbs, and one only had to pass through a grove of berry bushes to find it once you reached the other side of the bifrost.
