The reindeer seemed to notice the presence of someone else before Kiela did. She paused where she'd been picking at the vegetation beneath the pine trees, antlers lifting up as she searched her surroundings. If she was startled at Sverre's presence she made little sign of it, only shuffling slightly back toward where Kiela stood. Seeing her companion on high alert made the wolf's ears perk, listening for signs of someone nearby.

The smell that she found was familiar, albeit vaguely. Kiela came across many wolves in her travels, most passing through just briefly. Sverre was among those wolves. Finally she found him, somewhere up ahead. The sound of his companions came to her too but for now she focused on the wolf, aiming to close the distance between them just slightly. The distance kept was polite but not overly cautious - better to be safe than sorry though. "We met before, I believe," Kiela suggested. She didn't remember his name if she'd gotten it then. "I take it you noticed my friend here?" She gestured with her head toward the miniature reindeer, a rare flash of amusement shining in her eyes.
