Laila had been sticking to the outskirts of her new home, hiding and evading many of the wolves who dwelled inside the borders of Valhalla. It was unnecessary - Erani had welcomed her fair and square - but she was still worried that the rest of her neighbors would not be quite as hospitable. She was a mountain lion after all, the natural adversary to the wolves, and she was sure they were well aware of the rivalry between their kinds. So when she heard the call given by the blue-eyed leader it was understandable why she felt a little trepidation.
She had peeked out of the rocky cavern she had claimed within the Gorge, amber eyes staring out and about and then toward the location she was sure the pack would be gathering. How many of them were there now? Enough to make her uneasy about even thinking of showing her face there. But then again...curiosity killed the cat.
Once enough time had passed, when she thought the majority of the Valhallan wolves would have been there at the meeting, she crept out of her hiding spot and out of the Gorge, following the same trail that the pack had followed to get to the Plains. She dared not go too far - with all of them congregated together all it would take was one startled individual to turn everything around on her - and that was not how she wanted her introduction to the pack to go. Instead, when she finally spotted the large group in the middle of the valley, situated around the rock that the white alpha wolf sat upon, Laila stayed hidden, keeping low in the grass and at a safe distance so that she could watch and learn what she could without causing an unwanted scene.
