Silvertip Mountain Gracious News

All of a sudden, a commotion caught his attention, and, ears perked, he turned his head. A little bird was causing quite a scene, trying to get his attention. Steady's tail wagged, recognizing Itsy, and he quickly headed over. He wanted so badly for her to have good news, but braced himself for whatever she had to say. Hey, he greeted her. You're back soon, he noted lightly.

Was she not able to travel very long? Had she found Gracious? Was she okay? Was she not okay? A million questions went through his head, none of which he allowed to escape his maw. He remembered Itsy mentioning that she had done this before with another wolf, and wanted to make sure to keep his composure should she have bad news. He knew it wouldn't be her fault, and didn't want her to feel bad. Steady was certainly expecting the worse.
