Bundled up

The northern lands had been his home for a long time now. Though it would seem that he would find himself wondering whether to leave the wintery white world behind - because he had more than himself to think of. Silana was never trekking too far behind him, and although he was far from being a responsible older sibling, he thought of his sister. He cared about her, he wanted her well and the best thing to do for her well being would be to move further south for the duration of winter... or to join a pack.


The storm had hit suddenly, and he had been lingering near the towering stone wall when the winds hit. They kicked up snow and spread the flurries coming from the clouds at high speeds. The only thing that the yearling could do was take cover - he couldn't travel in this, it would be a fruitless effort, and he would end up winding in circle after circle until he near well froze. And so he would wait, sitting next to the strange structure as the wind blew fiercely overhead, howling and whipping everything around him.


He had been sitting for a few minutes when he caught what seemed to be another figure in the distance with his gaze. Company wasn't something that the quiet boy particularly cared for, but perhaps said lupine had seen traces of his sister. If Silana had followed him out here, then he would have to go and look for her despite the risks. Silently, with eyes narrowed against the wind he would stalk toward her, before stopping in front of her and staring. His bi-colored gaze would bore into her own, but his figure would not tense or raise with any sort of dominance. "You are alone?" He would ask her, and the question was almost a statement - given with such simplicity it came out rather stale. "Did you... see anyone on your way?" His voice rasped slightly with disuse and was almost foreign to his ears - it had dropped without him noticing much. It was rare that he have to speak.
