As the taller woman smiled at her, Nefari felt some of the tension she'd been holding leave her body. Her smile still wide, she intently listened as Keahi introduced herself and the names of the lands, cataloging both to memory. She bowed her head back to the woman, allowing the moment of silence to linger as she digested the little information she had just gotten. Whistling Willows. It seemed aptly named as the large trees that bowed over the nearby frozen lake was the only large shrubs in sight. Their hungry branches reached for everything in the cold breeze, some long enough to be buried by snow and ice, others short enough to brush across the top of her head. The overall size made it easy to see that these trees had been here a very long time, and it made Nefari wonder just how long. Just what have these trees seen in their lifetime? She also wondered if this wolf being here meant that there were packs nearby, their presence could be a problem in a worst-case scenario. But the best case was that she had the potential to make an ally in one of the packs, and that seemed worth working for especially with someone so seemingly friendly. Keahi broke the silence, and her train of thought, as she asked if Nefari had anywhere, in particular, she was trying to go. She felt nervous laughter bubble up in her throat with the question but swallowed it as the dark red woman gestured to her. Nefari approached and took the opportunity to have a seat with a better view of the trees and pond. Her legs greatly appreciating the rest after the morning she'd had, even if it was in the snow. "My name is Nefari," she introduced herself, and then with a deep sigh, continued "and I'm going to be really honest here, and tell you I have no idea where I'm trying to go." She said the words with a chuckle like it was a little joke, but her anxiety was secretly through the roof. She had no idea what the area was called, and she didn't remember seeing much on the way to get here. "I remember that there were a lot of trees that were spaced out a little weird and that I passed over a frozen part of a river..." |
