Thunder Dome Winter flames race the wind

The corner of his lip perked up in a friendly smirk when she nodded. He liked her little reactions to his words, it was like there was a debate going on inside her head with everything he said. Jolon's words were always taken seriously so far, but Asterr was the first to think about them like this. It was good to see that his bow did not go unnoticed, for it really was not easy to nail it without it looking silly. He was not one to bow easy for a yearling, but with the wisdom she spoke, one would almost forget she was. The questions he wanted to ask were all aimed at where she had come from and who had taught her all this knowledge, but the answers would come with time. For now, he was satisfied with what he knew.

It was no surprise that she had found his appearance cautionary at first, but he was contented to hear that those feelings were gone now. She stepped closer to him and connected her shoulder with his, something he had only ever done with one who had passed away. This made him bond with Asterr in his mind. He knew it was probably only a small gesture to her, but to him it was much more. 

He let his tail wag once again when he heard her words of approval. This moment had led him to believe that he had been destined not to get in the pack he had encountered earlier that day, for he would've never met this bright spirit. He nodded appreciatively and he allowed a tiny grin to grow on his face. She stepped back and out of the way for him to pass and even offered to show him around. Jolon did not know the area well enough yet and didn't want to risk falling and getting an injury, so he would gladly accept the offer. 

I can't thank you enough. Jolon replied in his normal manner, but with a tiny grin covering his normal emotionless face.As for your offer on showing me the place I'll call home from now on, I'd really like that. If it's not a problem for you, of course.The warning of others on this mountain was appreciated with a small nod and a smile. For once he felt happy about what he called his insanity, for it was just that that had led him to meet this raven yearling. He looked forward to being by her side from now on, and among the ones who had sworn loyalty to her as well.
