Locking this place down

Walk | Talk | Think For all the bravado the kid had, he seemed to calm down rather quickly. Maybe it was all for show, but Gale thought he had done a pretty good job of deterring potential dangers from trying to take a piece out of him. As it was, she still kept her distance and eyed him with a certain level of caution, not only for his comfort but her own as well. He was a lone pup and while she thought she could handle herself in a fight if it came down to it - how experienced could a kid possibly be in a fight? - if either of his parents happened to be nearby and they saw her near him she was sure they would have gotten defensive over the well being of their little boy. And in no way was she ready or willing to go up against a protective parent defending their young. That would have been a death sentence. As he appeared to brighten up, losing his distrustful, silent snarl for a look that she could only think to describe as excited, he did not seem quite so bad.

He was a kid, she reminded herself, and his thoughts certainly would not work like her own, but at least he seemed to be on the same page as her regarding his parents. He, too, wanted to find them, and was even smart enough to offer her a location to search for them in. Though as she heard it her surprise only grew tenfold.

How did he managed to get here?

"I've heard of that place," she added with a firm nod, "Haven't been there, but I hear there's a lot of snow, like you said." It still baffled her how he could have ended up all the way in south, skittering about near the edge of her pack's territory, but that was beside the point now. And because she could not quite help herself, Gale asked with great curiosity, "How did you end up here?" Gale
