In the last week or two Athena had forced herself to remain within the Regium lands or if she did leave she wouldn't go very far and often took her wife, Amalia, with her. The reason for this was that when she was out here alone, even without meaning to, she would begin to search for Vereux, or, worse, his body, and his continuing absence only drove her into depression. He had been her brother, husband, father to her children, and first love. Loosing him had been hard enough, but the fact that he had literally disappeared without a trace one day made it harder. It was the not knowing that drove her mad really.

However, today Amalia had been busy with some healer duty and her boys were out exploring again or whatever it was that young boys did during the day. Bored and lonely, Athena had wandered out of the borders of her pack, venturing a little father than she had recently. The sun began to sink below the horizon and she realized that she had yet again wasted the day away looking for her lost husband. She sighed and looked around at the snow-blanketed land around her, her breath forming clouds around her muzzle. Her stomach rumbled unhappily, making her remember that she also hadn't eaten today. Even better. Dark ears perking, Athena listened carefully for any sound that might give some form of prey away. While she didn't hear any prey right away, she did catch the sound of paws lightly crushing through the snow. Her split-tone gaze searched the night till she spotted a gray and white marked woman.

Part of her wanted to just turn and head back to Regium and leave this woman to whatever it was she was doing, but she was awfully hungry and two wolves tracking were often better than one. Athena turned toward her and trotted in her direction, keeping her stance relaxed and non-threatening so she hopefully wouldn't spook this stranger. "Hello there, " she greeted kindly, a small smile forming on her muzzle as she came to a halt several feet away.

"Talk" "You" Think
