The sun was high in the sky, her children playing just outside the den and told to remain there until she got back. She wanted to go for a walk, mostly because alot had been on her mind for a while. The pack was quiet, so she knew a meeting was due soon, not only to see where everyone was at, but also to finally assign mentors and get the pack moving now that spring was here. There would be much to discuss for sure, as well as introduce her new pups to the rest of the pack, and discuss other matters of importance. One of them being whether or not they should remain in the north... While she loved the pines, mainly because it was where she was born, she also knew that it was more difficult to live here. It as colder for those who didn't have the thick fur that most of her family line was blessed with, and those that had shorter fur like her son Gryphon, suffered terribly from it. The majority of the pack was uncomfortable with the snow, she was sure...that was one thing. Another, was finding a location that would be able to sustain the rapidly growing pack. The north only had so much to offer in prey and herbs among other supplies, and to get what they needed they'd have to eventually travel further which simply wouldn't do. So there was another thing. Potentially raiding if they needed more food, especially since the caribou would not return until late next season. These were things she'd never done, so it was important that she discuss them with the pack to see what they wanted to do. Her ears flicked as she walked along the borders closest to the mines, patrolling to try and distract herself from such pressing thoughts. But no matter how much she tried, it was no use. She couldn't avoid these kinds of things forever. It was her duty as an alpha to provide for her pack and do what she had to for their survival. "Talk" "You" Think

There was a lot to being a single father - especially with this amount of pups. He had left them in the den and hoped they would stay put as he said otherwise he could come back with a not so nice message from dad about respect for their family. Regardless, a small break was due for the emotionally inadequate man. Muscles moving as his tail flicked behind him. Liar felt no rage towards the mother - however these were his children now. She couldn't just pop up and take them again, there would be him there fighting for them. The lime green eyes of the beast would look up, noticing peculiarly the alphess walking about. She had just recently had a litter, and with the pack being so quiet he could only think how thankful and regretful she should be. She seemed troubled, and while he was no expert on emotions he took it upon himself to approach her. The king lowering his crown.

"You seem to be doing a lot of thinking." he suggested towards the female as he stood to her side. Though gave her enough room to be comfortable, he'd rather not have another one snapping at his face as funny as he knew that was. It also had been some time since he had spoken to Avalon - when he rather enjoyed her company among other wolves.

"You seem to be doing a lot of thinking." Ears perked at the sound of the familiar voice. The male she had let into the pack with Vereux's aunt. She wasn't sure what this man's intentions were considering he was still a stranger to her, mysterious and emotionless in a way that made Avalon wary of the man. "That depends. What gives you that idea?" He always let on like he knew more then he should. Unless she was just that easy to read. Nevertheless, he was a pack mate. And she had questions of her own as well. "I've not scented your mate around for some time. Care to enlighten me?" She turned to look at him, amber gaze questioning as she wondered what he would tell her. "Talk" "You" Think

Liar let his ears perk towards her. What gave him that idea it was a wonder. A certain amount of respect went into his posture as he breathed. "Silence usually ensues thoughts, pardon my imcompitence with emotions. Many of them i am confused with." He mimiced often, but he did feel unlike many could assume. As she went on to question him he nodded his head. "I meant to tell you but i was taking care of the children she left behind." There was a certain bitterness to his words.

"I am unaware where abelinda went. One night she was gone and it was as if she didnt give one mind to the family we created.... so i do hope her children dont feel disdain towards her. But i do have my morals when it comes to family." Liar tries his best to explain. "Id like to assume she forgotten her loyalty to ivalice as well." The male seemed troubled. Well he had given her what she wanted so he still had his job. "Id love it of my kids could interact with yours sometime...properly." he remembered scolding ash.
