She seemed startled at his abrupt, silent appearance, staring at him as though she was afraid she was seeing things. Her hind end slowly lowered while she scrambled to sit up as a regular wolf would. His tail swished slightly as her eyes roved over him as though she couldn?t stop staring. One brow point quirked slightly as she stared at him for the longest moment before seemingly remembering he?d spoken to her, before looking away to her paws, before her eyes jumped back to his face again. One ear cocked slightly as he listened to her speak. His brow smoothed, the four point star on his forehead unfolding. ?Start slowly. Build up speed once you?re passing through here without noise at that pace; before long, you?ll be running without falling in the mud. A Valhallan, let alone a Nomad, doesn?t give up.? He turned with a flick of his heavy tail, paws landing lightly, almost as though magnetized to the places that would bring the least noise. ?Follow. Watch where you step; one eye on the ground, the other on where you?re going. Let the sounds flow around you, and let yourself flow with the land.? It was the same lesson Arro had taught him when he was a youngling. The silvery voice of the dark timber male had been soothing, almost song-like, and very easy to memorize. He took a few steps forward, letting her see the placement of his paws, before pausing to watch her with a motion to follow. |
