Her tail flicked lazily in the afternoon sun, the little bit of sunlight that streamed through the caves entrance warmed her slightly, but the cold floor of the cave would counter it with its seeping coolness. She had wandered upon these caves by chance, wanting to find a secluded place to rest and try to relax and just be away from the pack. Since she had been confined in darkness and alone, she felt strange being around others as well as being in the sun for too long. She felt that now, darkness had clung to her and so she unwillingly sought it to calm her. She would, however, always keep the sun in her sights. A reminder of her runaway freedom. She did not know that Canttina had killed herself, didn't know that Amenti was soon to be under new rule. Carefully she'd place her head on her paws, amber eyes staring back at the darkest reaches of the dark cavern. Each breath that escaped her lips seemed to be amplified by the mysterious darkness that called. She wanted to go and investigate, but she was afraid that if she went in...she would never come out. Her leg throbbed from the old injuries that Canttina had inflicted upon her, every now and then something oozed a little out from the old bite wound. It hadn't healed right because other wounds would be inflicted upon her before they got the chance to heal at all. So she had simply stopped trying, though others had offered their help, she couldn't bring herself to accept. She was afraid, her trust was broken. She feared others beyond belief now because of Amenti. Because of those that had hurt her...she wasn't sure if she would ever be able to heal. But one thing that could possibly be healed, would be her piece of mind if she could find out whether or not her family was safe, and if Kestrel was safe and unharmed as well... Talk like this

His red eyes glinted as he looked into the entrance of the cave. Watching a girl who seemed to be trying to hide from the world littered with wounds. She must have been one of the old slaves his mother told him about. He didn't want to startle her so he whined and crawled onto his stomach, blinking at the beautiful creature in front of him. Who could hurt such a thing as her? Those wounds looked like they hurt to, making him a little bit sad. "A-Are you alright there?" He asked softly, pulling his ears to the back of his head. Talking to new wolves always made him nervous. Specially woman since he had no idea how to act around them. He tried to let out a smile, his black right ear twitching. As he stayed his distance. "Don't suppose you need any help miss?" Hajime asked softly. His black tail flicking back and forth. Speech,
