Unexpected Refuge

Quote:

He forced his eyes open, unable to continue looking at the endless slideshow of faces. As the two cerulean pools greeted the world once more, he noted how very petite she was. In his mind, she looked.. almost breakable. Now normally Leon would see this as something to be upset over, as he believed that strength was a key factor in a wolf's life, but her size was in some strange way, attractive to him. He knew that brute strength was not completely necessary, and figured that most likely she was quick and agile, where as he was more built for power. Her coat was something to speak of as well, a gentle gray that faded and darkened respectively. But the part of her that intrigued him the most was her eyes, which were gold in the middle and purple around the edges. Fascinating.

Her speech brought him out of his intrigued moment of checking her out and a faint smile appeared on his face for no real reason at all. You're probably right. I'm sure they got out just as quickly as we did, they probably just took a different path. The only question was.. how different? If they had just barely gone off course, they could be just miles away, a quick days' travel. But if they had gone in a vastly different direction, Leon and Ashtoreth might never be reunited with them. That was something he didn't want to think about. There were more important things to dwell on at this point in time.

Is this the first place you've stopped? Perhaps.. if she had stopped elsewhere, she would know a bit more about the land and whether or not there was a safe place to spend the night. Leon knew nothing of the weather here, and given that it was winter, he wasn't really keen on staying out in the open all night long. He had more questions to ask, but would try to pace them so that he didn't overwhelm her. Not every wolf was as talkative as he.
