We conquered and crumbled

The newest addition to Donostrea's territory was proving to be rather useful healing and hunting-wise. He had spent the morning rummaging through the snow in search of new herbs that hadn't yet suffered the damage of the cold climate. The area had to be bustling with vegetation during the warmer seasons; how unfortunate for it to have been claimed during the winter. That wasn't much of his concern, in fact, he was quite satisfied with the abandoned region that his brothers had found. He had made some progress with exploring the new borders while Silvius, his new companion who he had discovered at his former home in the East, scurried in small nooks and burrows for potential plants. Never did the thought cross his focused mind that the territory had once belonged to a neighbouring pack now scattered across the continent.

Ears pricked at the sound of an unfamiliar voice howling near his crouched position. After poking his head out from the snow, minuscule black eyes stared back at him with curiosity, his mind readably thinking the same thoughts as he. It seemed both hedgehog and wolf shared the same idea of investigation. Was it worth a look? Feeling tiny claws scramble up his shoulder in the hopes to reach his mountainous head, he gently rose to his full height, shaking his head to clear his thoughts and set himself for a new objective. The healer followed the call to the edge of the prairie's territory where a tall grey woman awaited on the outside of the border. She obviously was aware of the pack that resided just steps from where she had situated herself, but what was the reason behind her appearance? His elder brothers were the ones who he suspected usually took care of this duty, however, it wouldn't cause a great impact to speak with this particular outsider. Positively, he was showing initiative to fulfil the task himself.

He approached at a swift pace, taking a steady gulp before coming face-to-face with the female. Silvius clung tight to his head, rolled in a snug ball whilst peering from above. Mocha paws halted on the very edge of his territory as he cleared his throat with a quick cough before vocalising his question. "Greetings, miss," the earthen male addressed the female with a curt nod, keeping eye contact with faint intrigue. "What brings you to our borders?"
