Phoenix Maplewood she has used ancient and sanctified words

@Saena i figured he would still sorta look for her but im not going to have him address her, so it's up to u what u want to do with her! <3

as reek's eyes fell to the goose that the druid had brought, lasher became aware of a small shadow-stippled bit of white fur betwixt the dark boles of two trees. while it could easily be a member of the maplewood pack, he saw no reason for any creature other than saena to look upon them.

disheartened by her assumed refusal to join her mate in receiving his apologies, and thus standing firm upon the clay feet of her rejection, lasher nevertheless warmed the phoenix leader with an affectionate grin. "i appreciate it." small talk was last upon the list of lasher's desires, and yet he forced himself to find words all the same, for such was their lot.

"it seems you have fared well here," he observed. "i am glad. the winter may be a harsh one, it seems." lasher spoke with a comfort he did not feel, but did not glance again to the silent form of saena.
