There was a touch of caution as she slowly neared the Creek's territory. Their boundaries were plainly marked, and seemed to speak of a solid force here, so the last thing Amekaze wished to do was incite their wrath. However, she had said that she would come eventually, and she intended to hold her word. After resting for a day in the depths of the murky wetlands, she had felt ready to travel closer.

But she only lingered a good distance away from their claim and observed the surroundings very carefully before she dared to raise her voice to the cloudy skies that were only just beginning to darken with dusk. It was a quick, concise message: Ferdie?, and she hoped that he was around to hear it. If not, the dark Rikudou would not be lingering long. This pack smelled numerous and all the fellows she had seen from their lot seemed healthy. As uninterested in conflict as she was, it would do best not to linger too long to test her luck. After all, it was only the curious Ferdie that she had any interest in seeing.
