Sunbeam Lair An old friend on your doorstep

The cream had heard the howl, recognizing the voice immediately as the female who had told her she would soon be visiting. Menta had been stifling her wanderlust as of late - both a sense of obligation and guilt had been welling up in her, and this new stranger Shogun had put her a little on edge. It was time to be home and stay home, at least for now.

And so it was from a tiny dazed slumber in Sunbeam Lair that the howl had interrupted, the cream's ears fluffed up and catching the call as it shook her back to her senses. Feet responded without conscious directions, lifting her up and trotting with haste to the source. Menta recognized the cream male who had gotten to the border line before her - a smile and a nod was given to Leo, and a few tail wags to both of the wolves before her.  It was clear that they were friends - or friendly, at the very least - by the close proximity in which they had been greeting each other, and so the female stayed a few feet away so as not to rudely interrupt.

Valette, good to see you, she remarked politely. How have your travels through the Mountains been?
