The Bracken Woods I feel like something will happen today

She awaited his reply. It took him some time to gather the words, but once he found them his answer was simple. "A wolf." Well then. That wasn't so hard now was it? She released a breath she hadn't realized she'd been holding and shook her head. "Well then. You'd best befriend a beaver and get that thing off of you. Wolves don't run around with human nooses about their necks." No doubt, he'd run into significantly more trouble should he have first encountered anyone who was not herself. That thing was a dead give away that something was amiss. First impressions and all. They counted.

Of course, now that he knew what he wanted to be, it was time for him to start going about it. His present interest, in addition to her added task of ridding himself of that "collar", was to explore. Well then. It seemed he'd come to the right wilderness, though any wilds would do. She parted her mouth to comment on it when the sound of her voice suddenly shifted into that of a snort. Why was it that so many were starting to think she had a heart? "Please. My questions and advice are purely out of my own self interest."

"Speaking of," she continued, realizing that if he wished to be a wolf he might also have in him, somewhere the power of intimidation. If he were to accompany her? Hmm... Strength in numbers and all that. Her idea didn't sound half bad as she thought it in her head. "There was a pack up on a ridge not too far from here. Or is. I'm not sure of the state of it anymore. Shall we explore it?" He had said he wished to explore and Citali was curious as to the state of Frostfire Ridge. To sweeten the deal, she added, "There's a nice view up there. It might help you pick a location to try next."
