Valhalla had disbanded. A shame, really. It was the only real home she had known, and though she tried her best to stick it out in lands that were now considered rogue lands, she figured it best to move on. She was saddened to leave behind her crops and gardens, most of the things she had collected over time...but they were material things. Things that could be replaced. Regrown. Without a pack to help watch her back, she was afraid that she was too vulnerable staying there on her own. Luckily, Amorielle had stuck around long enough to help her get ready to leave. The partially blind woman had rarely left Valhalla's lands since she joined, finding comfort, safety, and familiar paths here. When she did venture out, it was with Amorielle as a guide so she could safely collect the herbs and other things she needed.

After a few weeks...she was finally ready to leave. Boreas' winter was harsh. Day after day, the winds blew cold and the snow threatened to overtake her. But once they had reached Auster, it seemed to be the complete opposite. She had never been to this continent before, and the pair would settle down here and there as Amorielle scouted the packs that were on this side of The Bifrost. As dawn approached, her rust-marked guide showed up as the sun began to break over the horizon. "Noelle, I think I've found a place. Pretty sure they're new...there don't seem to be many scents there, and the markers appear to be new. I think it's safe enough to go check it out."

She nodded as she got up, shaking the dust off her fur and grabbing the small satchel she had brought with her. "Lead the way," Together, they made their way to the borders of this new pack that Amory had found. She liked this time of day...it was peaceful. Quiet. Though it was pretty early still, she hoped it wasn't too early to disturb those who lived in the pack. She hoped it was a suitable place...while Valhalla would always have a place in her heart, it was time to start something new.

When Amory stopped at the border and looked back at her, Noelle stopped right behind her, half hiding behind her taller comrade. She nodded quietly, showing her that she was ready. And with that, Amory howled into the air, calling for the leader.
