Hello there, neighbor!

Preparations for the Bonfire Festival were well underway in the Hallows and the whole pack was abuzz with activity as materials and food were gathered for the fire and feast. As he did, Artorias was in the trenches with his wolves, helping out wherever he could. He was out amongst the plains where the pack had been gathering stockpiles of deadwood and lumber to use as kindling for the bonfire when the call came out from the southern border, a voice he didn't recognize requesting his presence. With a curious tilt to his head, Artorias stepped away from the work and made his way across the lush fields to greet their visitor. When he arrived, he found a familiar monochrome woman waiting for him, sitting in repose and enjoying the warm Austral summer day. He recognized her from the pack challenge that had been called off some seasons ago back north. Though he had never formally met her, he did recall she had been a part of Menagerie once upon a time. Her presence here intrigued the Aegis, and with a curious expression he approached and smiled to her.

"Good day, Miss," he greeted her with a tip of his head, coming closer to take a seat a short distance across from her. "Welcome to the Hallows. I am Artorias Carpathius, alpha of the Hallows pack. I believe I saw you at the Valhalla pack challenge some seasons ago, right?" He tipped his head curiously as he gave the elder wolf the open air to introduce herself and speak her mind. At the very least, she hadn't summoned him for a challenge on the Hallows, so Artorias could breathe a sigh of relief there! She must have either acquired her pack by other means or no longer sought to be an alpha. He supposed he would get his answer in due time.
