News of the West

The boy did not have to wait long before a young dame made her way to the pack borders and stood before him. Her words would cool, and certain and he would nod his head gently to her in respect for herself and her pack ? she was young, but that did not mean she might not be without power, and certainly her words seemed to hint that she had some say in answering his needs. ?I am Alpine, I was an old member of this pack ? but clearly some things have changed. I've been out of the world for a while and was hoping you could bring me news of this change?? he would ask, his voice polite and his head nodding to the vast spaces behind her, where old Valhalla use to roam ? was this still its name or was the pack called something new now. He knew he and Erani hadn't always been on agreeing terms, but he found himself wondering where she might have gotten to, or if perhaps even this challenge had been the death of her old body.
