Redhawk Caldera I'm an Albatraoz

She let him finish all he wanted to say, although following his reassurance that he still loved them, a question burned on her tongue. It was pressing, but not nearly as exciting as her plan to start a new pack. As quickly as he asked about it, she pushed the question to the back of her mouth, ready to be asked at a more opportune time.

"Yeah. Junior told me it'd be better to lead wolves who want to follow me rather than to try to force pricks like Koda at the plateau to show me some respect," she explained, forgetting entirely that she hadn't informed Peregrine of Koda's latest show of disrespect, "so that's what I'm going to do. Nowhere near here, though." She didn't sound the least bit apologetic about that because she wasn't. Her decision to go north was influenced as much by her desire to be far away from Redhawk Caldera and Fox (whom she hadn't seen in over half a year but still blamed for her family's state) as it was by her need to put space between herself and the plateau.

"I found a nice ridge to the north of the plateau, actually. There's a couple wolves there already who are interested." Although she tried to act modest about it, Saena was unable to keep a great deal of pride from her voice. She wasn't humble in the slightest. It was a huge accomplishment as far as she was concerned, and each success inflated her ego further.

"I wanted to ask," she began then, veering away from the topic of the pack as her pressing question came back to the forefront, "how come you came to visit Finley and Lasher, but never visited us? I talked to a guy from the Sunspire recently who said you were invited to visit Ty but hadn't been there either." Knowing that the accusation might sting him, Saena tried to make her tone light-hearted as she said, "what gives?" but it came out a little sharper than intended.
