Ouroboros Spine j - hollow life

AW for any to intercept him.. but @Tonravik should join this thread.

His task had been divulged with a note of importance – and, he would almost have pulled regret from his adoptive mother’s tones when she told him. Ivitaruk saw it purely for what it was: opportunity. When he departed from the Western Battalion, he did not glance back to see Nuvuyak staring at him – he only looked forward to the chance at bringing her honor and pride. To find Tonravik and expand upon yet one more glorious Tartok branch – if he played his cards right, perhaps they would grant him the same opportunity to create his own branch.. and finally lead.

The auburn wolf had swept through the lands with true purpose. He only questioned those he came across for a few moments, gaging if they had heard anything of his now leader.. even if she did not know it yet. He knew only a little of the woman – her pelt was adorned in a coat that would bring a raven envy, and her prowess on the battle field was fierce.

It could have been like finding a needle in a haystack, but Ivitaruk took the alone time with grace. He heard a few promising leads, and after two months of searching, he found himself upon the borders with a distinctly familiar scent. His paws prowled the very edges of the marked terrain, his hardened cinnamon eyes darting forward, attempting to discern what had happened here.

Tonravik’s branch was coming along well – or, so he would hope.. but somehow, for a dominant creature as herself.. her scent was still very faint. Perhaps she had moved onward?
