Starting life over with family

She grinned at Alastor as he greeted her and leaned over to nuzzle his cheek as he came to stand by her. In all honesty she fully trusted her husband and his judgement so if Alastor said Kichi was someone they could trust and was someone he cared for enough to invite him to their band then she had no problem trusting the silvery young man as well. She still appreciated Kichi's polite, if not a bit reserved, response though. She wasn't a difficult wolf to get along with as long as whoever she was speaking to was equally amicable and respectful. "The feeling is mutual," she said in response when Kichi mentioned how curious he had been to meet her after Alastor had spoken about her. It wasn't that often that Alastor brought someone to her to join. First it had been Seraphina and now Kichi. Considering a good majority of their numbers were made up of wolves that were her relatives it felt only right that Alastor be given some free rein when it came to filling the rest of their ranks.

She was about to say something else when a strange little bark pulled her attention down with a blink of surprise, her aqua gaze landing on a little deer-like creature with rounded ears and very noticeable fangs. She looked at it with confusion for a moment but noticed with a glance toward Alastor that her husband was shushing the little creature so it very clearly wasn't something new to him. "A friend of yours?" she asked with a chuckle, looking back up to Kichi again. She was no stranger to keeping companions around her. Her two ravens had been constant fixtures in her life for quite a while now. She had never considered keeping something like a deer around, but at least this little deer did have quite vicious looking fangs.

Manea gave a nod toward the caves behind her and told him, "Come on, we'll show you around." She turned and started to walk toward the main area where the band had been staying for the last season or two. It was hard to determine how long they had really been here when the constant darkness had made time feel like it was both passing so quickly and not at all at the same time. "We'll be moving locations soon," she informed Kichi, walking between the two males and keeping her gaze mostly on the new comer while her opposite side lightly brushed Alastor's. "I have plans to reconnect with some of the packs in the southern portions of Boreas and then continue moving into Auster next season. We'll be traveling and training for a while until an opportunity arrises to expand our group into a full fledged pack." She wasn't sure how many details Alastor had told Kichi last time they saw each other so she felt like it was best to at least give him an idea of what life with them would be like.

"I don't have many laws for our band. Simply take care of each other and respect our values. You can do whatever you wish, but any consequences of your actions are your own. Make sense?" With that cleared up she came to a stop in the clearing by the lake where they had done some of their gatherings and trainings in the shadow of the mountains where they had made their dens in the caves just above them. She turned to face Kichi a bit more properly, giving him a curious look. "Will you be staying with us permanently then?"
