Silvertip Mountain New Places

The wolf had begun to growl at them, and then started to bark questions at them about respect. At first her own hackles raised, but as he finished speaking, she realized that he was not going to attack, but rather felt that he owed more than what they were giving to him. Rain mulled his words over in her mind for a minute and then deciding that the wolf did deserve some show of respect, she lowered her head. "Please forgive me for not willing to give respect to those who are not of my pack," she told him calmly. "I do understand that since this is your land we should have given more than we had. I had not meant to sound demanding either, but rather wanted to let you know why we are here." Rain flicks an ear at Nishu, hoping that he will follow her in lowering his head. "Nishu is not exactly a wolf of the Sunspire, but rather in a contract with me. So please for give him for following my lead."

She kept her head and eyes down as she continued to speak, "If you will accept our forgiveness, then I would be happy to exchange news of our packs together in a friendly manner. It is not my intention to cause any problems here." She doesn't feel right keeping her head down to a wolf that she doesn't know, but to keep things calm it had to be done. "If you wish of us to leave, than we shall with no hostility." In the back of her mind she wondered how Nishu viewed her giving respect to this wolf without a fight. She believed that he would understand why, but hoped that he did not look down on her for it. His opinion of her mattered more than she had thought.
