She figured it was time to go see Orchid again, make sure everything was healing as it should. The russet woman would leave her den behind, shaking out her pelt before heading out to find the healer. She would make the trek across the range, Ekko following her as always, just as silent as always. The bruises were fading away, but her broke toe and bite wounds were still there, healing slowly but surely. Her crown would tip back, a call leaving her lips for Orchid. She would still attempt to find the woman, but at least she would now know who was coming. A mental note was made to figure out where the woman's den was, the information would be damn useful right about now. Her mind wandered, not that she had much tot think about. She had only seen Vi since returning to Covari. And that conversation had been far from pleasant. The mere thought of it had her blood boiling. Quickly, she pushed the subject away, it would be saved for a different time, right now she needed to focus on herself. Nostrils quivered, picking up the healers scent which she would diligently follow. "Talk" "You" Think

She was always behind Sibelle, like a growth that could not be removed. She had grown fond of her kind master, glad that it was her who had found her on that fateful day. So when Sibelle left her den for the healer, she trailed behind her as always. She watched her russet tail sway as she limped, that toe still bothering her. Ekko let out a soft whine, trotting up and softly nuzzling her shoulder as they walked. A rare thing, for her to be walking beside the female. But as of late Sibelle seemed to be effected by way more than just her injuries, and she didn't know what it was. That rage bubbled up in her lady once more, causing Ekko's pale eyes to quickly look up at her. What could be bothering her this much? She knew that she was upset about losing her pack, but the small dame had a feeling that she would soon go back for it.

With a soft huff she cast her gaze downwards, watching her rusty paws kick at the grass as they walked on. Where was that healer? She hated seeing Sibelle like this, and would rather have her back up to her full health. Maybe then she would know what was pestering her.

The healer woman was in her den when the howl rang out for her. Her den wasn't too far from Sib's, and was also in the Range even if the other woman didn't know it. She would busy herself for a moment, quickly tucking a few herbs into her leaf bag before ducking out the entrance of her den. She would tilt her head for a moment, considering where the howl had come from before trotting forward. She would be before the trio in a moment and would offer Ekko a smile before stopping before Sib. Sibelle, good to see you up and about? she said warmly. She had stopped in on the girl the first two days after her joining to ensure nothing festered and that all injuries where on the way to healing ?How are you cooping here?? she would ask softly, and she meant more then the injuries she had taken. She could only imagine what it must be like to return here in such a way, but Orchid had no doubt she had given what she had taken in her injuries and was strong enough to someday take back what had been torn from her grasp. The healer was not yet sitting and would ask now ?Do you want to walk with me to my den? And ill go over your injuries again? and perhaps the two girls could take some herbs and ease up on their worries for a time. ?Ekko, your welcome to come too? she said, but this was almost teasing, she knew the other would not allow Sib to leave her sight. Who knows, perhaps she could loosen up this strange woman.. the thought would be followed by a soft grin. Walk "Talk" Think

She would not take note of Ekko until she was pressing against her shoulder, a low whine slipping form her narrow jaws. A smile would curl her tattered lips as she looked down at the woman. "I'm fine." She hoped it would comfort the woman but before she could say anymore, Orchid was approaching. She would smile at the pale woman. "I'm managing." It was the truth, kinda, some days were easier than others, but she knew that she would get her pack back one day, it was other, more personal, things that plagued her mind. The healer would offer for them to go to her den and the russet woman would nod. "Yes, please." Her gaze would drift to Ekko when the healer extended the invitation to her, a smirk tugged at her lips as she noted Orchids light teasing tones. Ekko hardly ever left her side, and she was certain that the woman wasn't about to depart. Limbs would stretch forward, following the pale woman back to her den, Ekko at her side. "Talk" "You" Think

The soft spoken words from her broken queen fell on happy ears, Ekko let her short tail wag slightly behind her at her vocals. She knew that she wasn't fine, that she had indeed been better, but she would accept it for now. Plus, she would never fight Sibelle on anything that she said. So she just followed, soon seeing the healer of Covari approaching them. As usual she did not lift her head, but the girl did direct speech towards her. "Yes, Orchid." She said simply, her usual two word answer. It was almost like she only knew names and how to say yes or no, although the word no hardly ever left her lips. So she just followed after Sibelle, never leaving her side.

Her pale blue eyes watched her paws as they kicked the grass as she walked, not really paying attention to where they were going. She never seemed to grow bored following the russet queen, it was just what it was. It had become such a big part of her life, being the claimed one of the sweet Sibelle. She was the most fair master she had to serve, and she was rather enjoying it. Would she never voice that? Probably not. Ekko really should have been born a mute, at least then there would be an accuse for her not to talk.
