Preparations

Manea hadn't originally planned on coming on Relm's planning expedition to the lake, instead letting Avacyn take notes to report back to her later, but she happened to be in between tasks when she noticed Relm's group heading off of the island so in the end she had eventually followed suit. She didn't want to interrupt them in any way so she didn't rush to catch up to them and approached the group just in time to hear Irilyth mention the relation between Abaven's leader and the pirate woman she had fought. She couldn't exactly disagree with the thought and it was something she had already considered herself. She was honestly a bit surprised that they hadn't seen anything from the disgraceful pirates since the day of the challenge, but she supposed that there was always the chance that could change with this new contact with their related pack. Manea took a seat near Avacyn, giving them a soft smile as she waved for them to continue. She was simply here to listen and take in their ideas and comments, letting the intelligent ladies of her pack show their astute observations. She knew where her strengths were and where they were not and she was not so prideful as to disregard the opinions of wolves she trusted.
