Unsteady Footing

The thing he?d discovered about this particular territory was that the echoes here were pretty loud and able to be heard at far distances. He?d discovered that upon his arrival, his pawsteps echoing loudly back at him as he?d crunched through the snow. Now, the atmosphere was quiet, his movements stilled as he stared up at the massive bunch of snow. Whatever the boat was constructed off had amazing echoing qualities, so Pontifex wasn?t surprised when he was able to hear the echo of what appeared to be a gasp resound in his ears, announcing the presence of another wolf in the area. Grey and onyx frame turned around in a 180 arch, golden gaze coming across the figure of the second wolf a little ways below him.


A frown creased his features. How come he hadn?t been able to hear her come if he?d been able to hear himself? It didn?t really matter now, she was already here. Pontifex took several steps forward, gaze intent on the wolf, nostrils twitching as he gathered more information. She was female and didn?t belong to a pack. A rogue like himself? He hadn?t encountered many rogue females lately. This was a first. Who are you? He didn?t really know what he was supposed to say to the strange woman so he opted for the obvious question; who was she? Audits tipped forward with attention as he waited for a response, if one was to come.
