Was that it, then? He was after a meal to sate his hunger? It couldn't have been the only reason for that focused expression, or the way he marched through the fields and between the trees. Riordan's brow creased briefly, but he wasn't really in the mood to care too much when it came to the stranger. He was pleasantly surprised when the other male did not outright attack him; it was rare to encounter another lone wolf that wasn't outright aggressive towards fellow competitors. A welcome change.

"Sorry laddie, all I've found in these parts are abandoned burrows," but the stranger didn't have to take his word for it. For all he knew, Riordan could've been lying. He tried to sound cheery though, and gave a friendly wave of his tail as he assessed the situation. "Could be rabbits, or could be nothin'." He had also noticed a strange monument of sorts, something someone must have formed out of a pile of rocks. Rio had lingered by it for some time, just studying it and thinking, but eventually moved on to the river. He had no idea it was a grave, and probably wouldn't have cared.

"That all you're lookin' for? A snack?" Seemed odd, considering how forthright the wolf had been moving; like he had a mission, or he was expected somewhere.
