The wolf followed suit, introducing himself as Nishu. There was an addition to his title, however, that drew Floki's attention. A knight? He only knew what that was from Charon's overactive imagination; he had spoken often of knights and dragons and other whimsical things. Floki wasn't as creative as Charon, and his first assumption was that Nishu was of the same mind as his brother. But he spoke in a serious tone that indicated that it wasn't a joke or pretense.
Nishu quickly corrected himself, withdrawing his statement about knighthood. A question flew to Floki's lips, but before he could answer it, Nishu was making a query of his own. "What's it like to be a usual wolf?" he asked, and Floki blinked. What an odd question -- but it was surprisingly difficult to formulate a response.
"Um, well...I dunno. We just do wolf things -- hunting and marking the borders and taking care of each other," he replied with a shrug. "I'm an outrider, so that's my job...what's it like being a knight? Or what was it like?" he asked. He really wanted to find out why Nishu was no longer a knight, but held his tongue for the time being.
