Duskfire Glacier watch the eyeless gain control

Sorry for making you wait so long. x-x”

The woman's face wanted to contort itself into a scowl, but she kept the expression from making an appearance. That was it, then. It seemed the ember of a woman had truly gone, and without telling a single soul of her whereabouts, no less. She wanted to be angry, but the wave of obvious relief that washed over her was something she could not fight off. With the leader gone, that meant the pack was truly disbanded, and the land most likely to never return to what it once was. It also meant, to Sen, that she would not need to make a decision. She no longer had to go over a list of the ups and downs to staying at the glacier after the battle with the sea wolves. Instead, she was given no choice at all, and simply forced out of the first pack she'd ever been apart of—as the other members had been, as well. Being a loner, officially, again brought forth an old sense of pure freedom, but with it also came the sense of loss. She was free to travel anywhere she so pleased once more, but no longer did she have a place to call her home. No longer was there a place for her to return to. “She abandoned us, then?” the dark being inquired, albeit rhetorically. “After taking us to war, she decides to vanish...” Maybe that was what being in a pack was about. There were risks, of course, but perhaps the end result of them all was an end to the reign of a leader. Unluckily for Duskfire, though, they hadn't been given a successor to start a new chapter. They'd just been, as Sen believed, abandoned.

Her ears perked up a bit at the mention of claiming a neighboring territory. She wondered, for a fleeting moment, why he didn't just reclaim the glacier, but then decided against asking. Surely, he had his reasons, and she didn't care too much as to what those reasons were. Sen was, however, mildly curious about the man's plan to lay claim to a new land. “What do you plan to do after you claim it?” she inquired, wanting to know what would come out of it. Would the male leave, as the female had, or stay and rule until his life was no more? Though she found herself wanting to be apart of a pack once again, to fill the empty hole that was the sense of belonging nowhere, she did not want to devote herself to something destined to fall to ruins. “Are you going to leave just as Tuwawi did?” The question was blunt and straightforward, but she couldn't care less about that. She needed to know before anything else, as his response could either make her curiosity rise further, or make it drop down below everything else.
