Moonspear a grin made for war

Her shoulders tensed slightly at Lex's direct question. Of course, the deciding factor had been the threat of Nightjar's teeth. Wildfire didn't want to dwell on that, though. It still hurt to recollect her brother's reaction that day, plus there was the fact that he had pushed her into a decision she should (and would) have made on her own. She took a breath, preparing her answer in her head.

"A lot of different things influenced my decision in the end," she said lightly, shrugging and coaxing the stiffness out of her shoulder blades. Luckily, Lex chose that moment to stumble over something in his path, so Wildfire didn't have to elaborate any further. He didn't react much, so she didn't either, though quietly she was thankful for the small distraction. Plus, it looked like she might have found a kindred klutz in him.

"They aren't," she agreed with his next statement. She had no plans to go back and visit for a while. She still needed time to recover from the circumstances of her departure and adjust to life in Moonspear. No matter how much she missed them, she wasn't ready to see them yet. Wildfire was actually a little bit afraid she would be tempted to go back there and wanted to strengthen her ties here first before tempting fate like that.

Skirting around a bent sapling in the way, Wildfire asked, "What about you? Why did you leave your family?" She hoped it was just a natural dispersal like her own rather than some sort of misfortune or tragedy.
