At the very least the stranger was well-mannered as he spoke, having asked instead of assuming the answer, to which Iðunn simply canted her muzzle to the side in acknowledgement. As she had no claim on this land he was free to hunt whatever he wished, and perhaps he could be useful in assisting her to take down a larger and more ferocious creature that would benefit both of them with a full belly. The wolf seemed surprised as she spoke, and delight filled her as he responded in turn, hearing the dulcet tones of her home language meet her ears, sounding almost musical to her. She hadn't been expecting him to understand, never mind be able to speak it back to her, and just as swiftly her posture became more open and welcoming, her lips turning up in a small smile. The names of the ravens brought forth a light chuckle, and she crooned softly at the birds in greeting, wondering if they too were able to speak. The wolf's pronunciation wasn't perfect by any means, but just hearing it spoken to her from someone who was not her family was good enough for her, and her own ability to speak fluent common was certainly not nearly as good. Her brows raised at his question, and she thought for a moment before responding, deciding it didn't matter if he knew about where she had come from. "Yes, my family has only recently arrived here. It is... warmer than I am used to, but the prey is more forgiving." She could only hope the winters would be cold enough to remind her of home, but not too harsh that they risked starvation.
