Bees both sting and make honey

Corbie was surprised, as the other wolf began to speak, to learn that this wolf was from the viking pack that had raided Avalon before. She was nothing like the towering brute who'd led the pack before, if her nervous demeanor was any indication. Still, she'd been burned before when it came to the vikings so she kept her expression and her emotions carefully neutral. The same neutrally friendly face she'd show anyone - she liked this woman immediately, but caution was warranted. "We would be more than happy to trade with your pack," she told the smaller alpha. "I don't know how much you were told of us before you took over your pack? Avalon is a completely neutral pack, neither ally nor enemy to any pack but open to trade and friendly relations to all. We are also open to teaching our crafts to any interested in them."

She dipped her head to study the crate Delphi had brought with her, the dusty glass tinkling pleasantly as she nosed at them. "What are you interested in trading for?" she asked curiously. The newly christened pack already knew they had sheep and sheep products, she thought with a faintly sardonic twist, but she wasn't sure if news of Avalon's wares had spread or not yet.
