Carefully the young girl continued to study the water as if the answer would magically come to her. There was still an awful lot that Novella had to learn about the land really, the oddities like these warm pools were new to her, just as the ocean once had been before finding her sister and Ludicael. An explanation of sorts was all she needed, for the pools themselves were providing her with no further information than the stark facts that she had already deciphered; it was warm.



In the corner of her eye she managed to spot the shape of someone else approaching. Head lifted and her gaze now rested upon what she quickly realised was only a pup. She was younger than her nieces and nephews, that much Novella could easily decipher but certainly wasn't aware of how much so. Even without an exact age however, she decided that the pup was probably too young to be on her own. That led to the immediate thought, in some ways hope that the mother or father was close by.



As if on cue the voice of another wolf suddenly met her ears and head turned to look in the direction, eyes searching for the source. Sure enough they soon rested upon the form of another wolf, though she didn't seem to be paying much attention to Novella or the pup, at least not immediately anyway. When her gaze finally rested upon them there was not one of recognition, nor any question as to why Novella was so close to her daughter. The three of them she concluded were perhaps all strangers to one and other then.



"Greetings. I am Isabella VentFlurrer. Do either of you know what this place is?" Came the introduction as the older woman approached her and the pup. Now closer the thoughts were confirmed, Isabella's scent certainly didn't match that of the pup. "I'm Novella Destruction." The girl announced, her own tone holding a little more warmth than Isabella's, though for now she still remained a little wary. She may have had a name, but this woman was still a stranger to her, Novella had certainly been observing and learning you couldn't just trust anybody. "No, I don't."



Her attention shifted back to the pup for a moment now, certainly not wishing to exclude or ignore the fact that she wasn't with her parents. " What's your name? Do you know, or perhaps your parents might? Where are they?"
