Walk | Talk | Think

The watchful wolf hung back inside the den as the youngsters greeted the morning each in their own way, Warja a little more exuberantly than the others. He grinned as he watched her practically bound to her paws and followed closely behind her mother, so eager to go about the adventure that Alamea had mentioned. He certainly hoped the long trek they had ahead of them would be enough to appease the young girl's expectations. Keiki was more mellow, stretching and yawning and quite contentedly moving to brush against her father's leg. Rune smiled down at the little girl who shared his eyes, reaching down to brush his nose across the top of her head as she asked about their trip.

Eirik seconded the question but already Alamea was giving her answer outside of the den, informing them of the trip across the small strip of ocean that they would all be making. Rune followed them out of the den and could not stop the grin that stretched upon his face as his mate promised that the threat he posed would keep all the dangerous sea creatures away from their crossing with a little nudge. He hoped it was true. No one had any complications with the crossing to date, but there was always a first for anything, especially with pups as young as these ones. "That's right," he added, "we'll be perfectly safe."

He was surprised to see another join their group, and even more surprised to note that it was the new leader of Valhalla, Erani. She seemed concerned for their decision to part ways with the pack, but in no way did she seem inclined to stop them. He was grateful for that. He was not entirely sure how deeply Alamea's loyalties ran with the pack, and it still seemed likely that she could change her mind about leaving at any moment. But her answer to Erani's statement consoled him, eased his worries. "I know of a safe place we can go," he assured the aged healer, "I grew up there. Assuming it's still unclaimed, it should do for these three as well." He accepted her congratulations with a nod of his head and let Alamea speak their thanks, falling into step beside her as the little snowy wolf began to lead them along their way.
