Emer had come from a caring family, once her confidence was restored and she had fully begun to recover from her trauma, it was likely that she would really grow to fit in with the pack. It may have initially been chosen on a whim, and then decided purely for the protection and help she had so desperately needed though it could prove to be the perfect choice in time. Already some of that compassion for others was surfacing once more, that desire to help them if she could.
"Yes, I'm alright. Just. Sad." The other girl would try avoid looking at her and though she had no idea what had brought on such pain to the other and not knowing her probably had no way to fix it, all the same Emer would want to try and help. The wolves of Valhalla had done so much for her and she needed to start repaying them at some point, even if it was for now by simply listening to the problems of another.
She would once more glance back up the path, a deep longing to return to her children though a few more moments could be spent with this wolf first of all, it'd be rude to simply turn away now. Attention would move back to the other as she shifted slightly and Emer was able to catch the first sight of the cross upon her shoulder and see what the marking was. She had noted the scent of Jinxx upon the other, though given that they were both members of the pack she had thought nothing of it, she had after all recognised Alpine's scent upon her as well. Even now she couldn't guess the family link, though the similar marking was such an odd one that it would hold her attention for a moment.
"A friend of mine has a marking like that one." Emer commented, hoping perhaps the friend in common would at least put her at ease enough to even look at her. "I believe you know him as well, Jinxx." The male was hardly a friend really, though he had protected her and got her here safely, she hadn't gotten the chance to see him again since they had parted at the borders. She'd been too scared to venture out and find him, and he of course, not that Emer knew it, had been occupied looking after Twig.
