oh ho

Chimera watched the subtle shifts in the speckled woman's features as realization struck. Water under the bridge, she eventually said, but he wondered if that was true. Women were sensitive things and he'd struck her with venom filled words back then. He wasn't the same wolf now, but they'd only just met again. She had no reason to believe his words and he had no way to make her believe them. Good thing they would be parting ways again soon and would most likely never see one another again. Although, he didn't mind if they did see one another again. She was prettier now than he remembered her. It looked as though she'd filled out a bit, which he appreciated.

Hanako spoke of needing to get away after the darkness that had plagued the world and Chimera accepted the explanation with a nod. "It certainly took it's toll," he replied softly. So many had been brought low by the infections from the mushrooms, crystals and ooze. If he never saw any of it again, he would be too happy. His children had almost died. Viper did die... The whole situation had been bizarre and taxing. The endless efforts that he'd employed to keep everyone safe and healthy during the event had brought illness to him after. He was only now getting back to full strength.

The woman's offer to take word to the warlord was met with yet another soft chuckle. "No thanks. I've nothing to say to Sirius." He knew the Warlord from when he was a child. They'd never had a relationship of any sort. If the woman had something to offer to him, perhaps it would have been different. But a diplomat coming to a pack with no gift, no word to offer on her packs behalf... Basically there was nothing in it for him. No matter though. Fenmyre was allied with Ashen and was working on an alliance with The Hallows. Did a small, family pack need anything more?

"Come," he said suddenly, rising from his place and motioning for her to follow him into the territory. "It's better than just sitting here waiting for it to rain." Turning, Chimera began walking alongside the river where the beavers built their plethora of dams. At least the woman would get to see a bit of the scenery. He didn't mind outsiders seeing this place. It was only under his rule for the sake of food.
