Serpent Lake have you tried turning it off and on again?

Haha! This thread has certainly gotten interesting!

Kero shook his head. Had he considered keeping a more selective company? He had. Unfortunately life didn't work that way. Not anymore. As a loner with no strings attached, he could pick and chose as he so pleased. As a pack wolf and an alpha? Things weren't so simple.  "If only things worked that way," he mused further. "You're in leadership with your pack aren't you? You know how it goes. They love you or hate you. They trust you or fear you. A wolf in my paws doesn't get to pick and choose as much as one would think. We simply lead, regardless of whether or not we truly desire another's company."

Their conversation was in two parts. The first a more whimsical approach to life and living, the second more specific to the Tartok women who were legends within their world. Siku, certainly. From what he understood, Siku was the lifeblood of everything Tartok. Tonravik? A daughter who'd set off to forge her own piece of Tartok. She was known, but she was not legend of the same sort. Over time? Perhaps, but for right now Kero had a feeling her legacy was still in its infant stages.

Having never met Siku, Kero couldn't truly say what she was like. The only thing he had to form an opinion on her was the opinions of others. He wove together the many stories of her and had something of a mental image as to who and what she was like, but he'd never be able to fully comprehend her. Instead, he had a far better understanding of the daughter, and even then? Not by much. Tonravik spoke so infrequently that getting to know her was always through an experience of trial and error. She was no easy wolf to get along with. Simple... but that strong instinct of hers was hard to fully understand.

As for Lasher's question, Kero shook his head once more. "Very seldomly. I've only heard Tonravik speak of her when she spoke of the family history." Once. Once so long ago it felt like a lifetime away. "Words seem to pain her." He'd never understand that. Kero was very much a wolf for conversation, but he did his best to make it work anyways. "She's more physical of a beast."
