Time after time

With all the spring cleaning going on around the Hallows and the pack in a constant state of expansion, Artorias had taken this time to begin setting up a proper room for his High Council to convene in when he needed to discuss pack matters with them. He had been in the midst of clearing out an unused storage room on the first floor of the castle to convert into a meeting room when a familiar voice called out for him from the border. The Aegis' obsidian ears perked atop his crown; he knew that voice well. How long had it been since he'd heard it? Two months? Three? Regardless, the call brought a smile to spread across his muzzle as he hurried out of the castle and across the vast plains to find the familiar gray wolf he had grown up with. Jane had come home.

Artorias trotted briskly up to greet the Adravendi lady, smiling a big, toothy grin as he went right up to greet the smaller wolf with a nuzzle to her cheek. It had been too long since he'd seen Jane off to go see the world and do some soul searching to find who she wanted to be. Hopefully she had found what she needed in her time to herself. "You know you don't have to wait at the border, silly! This will always be your home and you're always welcome here!" he remarked with a lighthearted chuckled, but ushered Jane across the border and into Hallowed lands all the same. "Welcome home, Jane. Your family's missed you. Are you coming back, or just stopping by on your adventures?"
