There seemed to be no time she spent outside of at least Lotte or Arturo's company if not both of theirs. And she wasn't complaining at all. She was sore, but satisfied, even as her heat ended. It wouldn't take long before they knew the state of things; a week, two weeks, and the medic would feel certain. When she heard the howl she pressed a few quick kisses to Lotte's cheek before tugging herself from the plush woman's embrace to attend to the figure at their borders. She wasn't sure where Arturo was but expected his prompt response as ever - especially since he would soon realize one of his women had gone to the borders. 

The figure smelled of a female, which was a relief to Hemlock, as even though her heat had ended she had no desires to encounter a male at the moment. It was surprising to find someone directly supplicating themselves in such a way, but with her hormones still in flux it only pleased her more. Hemlock's posture was all it took to affirm her status here, her scent laced in every inch of it's borders. Still, she did not allow the stranger to rise; instead, a brow lifted as she stared at the other female in a clear invitation to state her business on their borders.

 

She could nearly feel Arturo's eyes once they landed on her, aware of his presence acutely. She might have preened, presented herself more but instead she stayed cool headed. Especially given the way that she was currently scrutinizing the other female. Hemlock's eyes shifted just a little when the woman claimed her specialty, and to this, Hemlock gave a slight nod to allow her to at least sit. "Are you trained at all? Or is your talents more in the moment remedies?" Hemlock asked curiously. She would test her - of course - but there was a difference in the way that one learned. If it was small tricks to get you through, Hemlock still didn't consider it bad but if there was a genuine interest in the field and a desire to learn more she would also be pleased to hear it. "Where have you come from? And your name?" 

Well, it might not have been on her same level of knowledge but few were. That was fine. They could still offer up what they did know - a communal effort of things, and Hemlock would be just as pleased knowing that in a bind there were others interested in healing or even carrying rudimentary knowledge in them. They still had a need for mercenaries and Hemlock wouldn't pass up the opportunity to add to their strengths should the stranger prove to be an asset. "You have found yourself on the borders of Teaghlaigh - we are Family first and foremost, and it is our biggest strength." Of this she was certain. She could not imagine the bonds of other packs to work as theirs did, though she had truthfully not taken the time to test any of them. 

"Our creed is simple. The Family comes first, and all who are of Teaghlaigh uphold this simple rule. Our Ceannasach's word is absolute law. Can you abide by these rules?" Hemlock asked curiously, almost holding with baited breath to see what the response would be. This was the point when many other, lesser creatures, found the pressure to be too high. Would this one cave the same way?

 

Hemlock gave a little nod; this was enough for her for the time being. At least this one was willing to try and assimilate into Teaghlaigh's ways. "For now you will be a Comhlach as you get familiar with our pack and our ways." She explained. "It would do well to get familiar with the others of the pack, to seek out Arturo, our Alpha and Ceannasach." Hemlock knew that Lotte would come to find her soon enough, no doubt Chusi once she'd returned would seek the woman out as well. She approached and pressed her shoulder against the other females, making sure that her scent was upon the woman before she gave a nod. "Would you prefer a tour, or to explore at your will?" The options given, she waited for the woman's response before heading further to the territory - a glance given to Arturo with a little coy smile to entice him to follow her as well.
