Black sheep in the crowd [pack meeting]

CALLISTO

Walk | Talk | Think

She had been outside of her den studying, the drying bits of plant laid out neatly upon the uneven stone of the Steppe. Had she been closer to the end of her self-imposed lesson she would have answered more quickly. Instead, the black and grey girl had taken the time to bring them back into the safety of her den before she left the Steppe to venture to the lake, the location she knew Vaughan's call had originated from.

Her thin, grey legs carried her shadowy body to the lakeside and slowed almost leisurely as she approached the group as a whole. Silvery-blue eyes fixed themselves first upon Vaughan at the head of their pack, in the place that their Alpha should have claimed. Having not yet met her, Callisto had to wonder where the ruling lady was. Gaze panning, she found Maximous, her instructor, in apparent conversation with another wolf. She had thought to join him when she arrived, but since he seemed busy the lean yearling girl simply sat amongst the gathered, quiet and stoic and straight backed as she awaited Vaughan's purpose in calling them together.
