Dragoncrest Cliffs Even just a little bit

[table width=85%][tr][td]

Eske offers Kendra a wag of her tail when the other girl acknowledges her, seemingly with surprise. “Of course I was,” Eske responds with a pretty smile for Kendra. Admittedly, she could have waited until Kendra and Xan had parted ways but the Drakru had never been one for manners (much to Gyda’s dismay). Eske had almost forgotten that Kendra had came here with the ivory male before her who seemed well intent on ignoring her. Instead of her normal annoyance, it took all of Eske’s willpower not to laugh. The truth was: she didn’t give two shits about him anymore than he surely cared about her. He was not a overly active presence in Drageda and she wonders why he is even here. Eske is not leadership and knows that she is not Freyja and will never see it and it is possibly a good thing. She would have no qualms about letting it be known what she thinks about wolves that do not pull their weight. She, herself, isn’t very sociable but she uses the excuse of her aggressive personality and that she is always working: patrolling, sparring.

She is introduced to Xan by Kendra, and for a moment Eske feels guilt that Kendra is placed in the awkward position of being forced between them; but Eske will not just go away if he pretends that she is not there. Eske will not back down. Though his insubordination is extremely annoying to Eske who is of a higher rank than he. “Just because he is private does not mean he should not at least greet his pack mates,” Eske tells him, fixing him in a piercing stare. Especially pack mates that are higher in the hierarchy than him, she thinks. Well shit, as Kendra tells it Xan saved her life and Eske is …reluctantly grateful for that fact. Though the more complex of her feelings towards Kendra are a jumbled mess that Eske is hesitant to unravel if only because she has never felt this way about another before she focuses on the simple ones: and as she truly does enjoy Kendra’s company she is glad that she is alive. Eske’s tail sweeps against her hocks. “It is a good thing that he did.” Eske says this softly, genuine in her words. Her gaze flickers from Kendra to Xan where it lingers for a few moments before it moves back to Kendra.
