>>It was only this morning that Bass had requested him to go to the neighboring Fiori to see if they needed any help. With an enthusiastic nod, Dart had taken up the task as quickly as possible. Well...at least, as quick as the mud would allow. The small canine loped towards Fiori, his legs completely coated in mud and the underside of his tail was coated, his appendage being harder to keep off the ground since he was much shorter then those in his pack. It took double the time it would have normally taken for him to travel this distance, but once he arrived he would pause at the borders, the fox trying to unstick himself from the mud. He debated on calling out in his native tongue, but that would probably startle them...so instead, he opted to call out for someone, hoping they'd be nearby. "Is anyone there?" "Speak"

Since his little pups were all sound asleep and Svetlana was resting with them, he decided to take the chance to go check on the pack. The mud that had swamped the teritory since Spring arrived had been worrying, but it hadn't seemed to cause any real damage so he had calmed down for the most part. Still, he wanted to just take a look around and check on everyone. As he was passing through the mangroves a voice happened to catch his attention and his ears perked, his head turning toward the sound curiously. It wasn't a voice he recognized and it was coming from the direction of the border. He turned and trotted toward the voice and moments later a very unexpected orange and white fox came into view. He wasn't unfamiliar with interacting with a fox because of Korrin, but he still wasn't expecting a fox to be calling for someone from the border. To add to his curiosity, the fox's scent definitely held the distinct scent from Abaven. Leo gave the fox a pleasant smile and settled on his haunches as he greeted him. "Hello, there. I'm Leo, the King of Fiori. How can I help you?" "Talk" "You" Think
