Blacktail Deer Plateau Saying Hello

She hadn't expected her last question to be answered with Kieran's whole life story, but part of her was happy that he had. He mentioned mentioned the possabily of the pack moving back to the Cuesta with uncurtainty. I must not have been something that was talked about through the pack. He then went on to explain how he had been born in another pack and described how they had been forced to flee.

A battle over a territory were often seen as wars and even involved the lives of others becomming lose. Pema was lucky that she never had to witness much violence in her life, but she wan't going to lie to herself and say that it didn't exsist. With Kieran being an example of that exact thing. Especially at such a young age, she assumed that at that age he wouldn't have even understood why it was happening. 

His families next attempt at a pack hadn't been any better, as Keiran described a boy named Hawthorn, who became his friend almost commiting suicide. Something often unheard of in wolves. Along with the sudden and unexplained loss of his mother. Pema couldn't begin to think of how horrible everything must have been for him. 

Her life seemed to peach perfect in comparison to his and she thought that no one desirved to be sad in his presence, knowing that he had felt worse pain. It also said something about him that he could still be happy with everything that had happened. One was that he was willing to move forward with his life and make the best of it. But the other part could also be that he was now desensitized to it, thinking that loss and pain were part of ones everday life. Either way Pema felt extremely sorry for Kieran. 

She no longer was focused on hunting, it seemed to have no meaning compared to everything she had been told. She wasn't sure what to say. At first she had been shocked that such a story continued with so many unhappy endings. But she wanted to say something, even if it wasn't exactly the most perfect or right thing to say. "Kieran... I... I can't imagine how hard all of that must have been to go through... I'm sooo sorry for everything that happened." it wasn't as though she had been there or could have changed the out come but still...

"Going through all that, especially at such a young age can really do a number on someone. It speaks alot to your character and ability to keep on going even with everything pulling you back." she spoke both of physical and emotional barriors that he faced and most likely still faced to this day.

She stepped closer to him, and lightly nudged her head on his shoulder. "I'm glad you can find happiness." she finished, steping away from Kieran and walking along side of him still not very focused on hunting. She wasn't sure if anythign she said would hold any meaning, but felt like she needed to say something.
