Just throw it back, for one more night

What a strange yearling, Florian thought as he listened to the younger wolf greet him. He spoke with a bright voice, his body language betraying his excitement at seeing someone new. It was refreshing to see someone so happy at meeting someone new, but it was his words that truly threw Florian off. It seemed that the yearling thought he was calling him “Alright” as a name. He shook his head, correcting the older male, and even gave his name. Still, Flo arched a brow. It seemed strange to him that a wolf this old wouldn’t know the difference but he didn’t judge the youth for it. He seemed harmless… just a little confused was all. Flo remained calm, addressing Ephy in the same manner of tone as he used before.

“Alright isn’t a name, Ephy. It’s… Well, kind of used to how to describe how you feel? Not good, nor bad, just alright or okay. I wanted to make sure you didn’t get hurt from running into me, though it seems like you are actually alright.” Florian breathed a sigh of relief at this information. Too many creatures could want to hurt others, and Florian didn’t want to be one of them. But the man had never had an inkling of darkness in his heart. Even when the wolves killed his brother, Faolan, Florian had found himself unable to hate them. It was why he needed Gargy and Ruu… They would make the right calls when it came to the dark ones.

“I’m afraid that I didn’t see the… glow bugs…” Even now he was looking around but he didn’t see them. He knew the insect that Ephemeral was looking for but, to avoid confusing the youth again, used the same terminology he had. “Are you out here by yourself?” He asked as he looked back at the yearling. He didn’t have a pack scent on his coat. Or… much of any scent other than his own. “I mean… are there any other wolves nearby that you can go back to? A mom or dad? A friend?”
