Atreyu wandered through the sparse woods of Aspen Dam, appreciating the beauty of the place and the bounty of the Austerean springtime. Birds sang in the trees and flitted around in the underbrush, squirrels ran up the trees and barked their warnings with their flicking fuzzy tails, she could hear the crooning song of a peacock not far away. She could smell the bovine scent of gaur in the distance, listening to the droning calls of the massive cattle with a lick of her lips. If her band could bring one of those down, they could feast for a week!

With birthdays right around the corner, Atreyu wanted to start preparations for the party and the remembrance feasts. Perhaps, after her morning rituals she could organize a hunt, or something to get her band moving. They would need it if Azriel's plans were to be fruitful. She certainly didn't want to send any of her wolves out just to get beat up. As a whole Judila needed some work, though they weren't in too bad of shape. If they were to become the weapons she needed though, they would need to hone their skills and talents. Letting out a call, Atreyu announced her need for company today. She wondered who would show up, perhaps a couple of healers or maybe her fighters would appear? Who ever it was, she would be glad to see anyone right now. Everybody counted toward keeping Judila afloat - ironically including the very man who tried to tear it down in the first place.

OOC: Anyone is welcome! Hunting or fighting skills encouraged!

It was the distant howl that had Ganymede lifting his head from where he laid on his pelt, ears pressed forward and still bleary eyed. Sleep still weighed heavily on his mind as he took a moment to discern who exactly it was before it creeped in that it was Atreyu. A quiet huff through his nose turned into a yawn as he carefully stretched, favoring his injured legs and doing his best to not jostle the smaller bodies of Lailah and the children. And to not wake the cinnamon brute on his other side. He couldn't handle their fretting this early in the morning and he wanted to go see what Atreyu needed. It was a good of time as any to wake up.

He was careful as he slipped away, wobbling and careful with every step he took as he kept his front left leg an inch above the ground while pushing his pain from his back right down. He'd be damned if he let this stop him from moving around, especially with how at peace the world seemed for the moment. Bird songs flitted down from high in the sparse trees and the baleful lowing of cattle somewhere distant paired with the beauty of this place soothed his senses. It was the sight of his sunrise colored sister that had him picking up his pace to join her, shoving down any pain until he could make a show of not hurting. "You rang?" He hummed out, tone light and jovial.

The small wolf walked through the fields, eyes of pink lurking over the humid territory where lakes and beaver dams were the main attarctions of the area, many good options for prey and water. A place such as this was the best for any wandering group, so she didnt blame Atreyu from seeking a home here for them. As her call rang to her ears, the scarred woman headed there, expression neutral as her ears were up and in alert of her surroundings. She was always in the constant state of fear of being ambushed, a thing that came from her traumatic experience that made her more weary than she used to in her puppy times.

She arrived, thankful of the other asking the same question she would had asked herself, meaning she didn't want to speak as she didnt have much wish to do so at the moment.

Beauty was everywhere, dangling from the trees, the way the sun glittered through the tree tops. Twin peaks shifted upon the yearlings skull as the sound of her leader and best friend caught her attention. Two of the woman's siblings were near her already after Atreyu allowed her song of summons out. A yawn was released as she padded closer, but also carefully. Pink pools looking towards the brute and the quiet earthen toned female who looked almost like Vayne. She didn't know where that masculine was, maybe soon she would find out although she would not rush it at all. A wave of her tail as she pulled herself even closer. Awaiting for the command from her leader and best friend. Eyes sparkled with adventure and curiosity while she stood there silently.

OOC: Sorry, so short and crappy.
