Lucani was too clever to not be at least somewhat sceptical — and it seemed Thuringwethil herself had smarts of the same kind. Both agreed (Thuringwethil verbally and Lucani internally) that putting your lot in with the first pack you encounter, and a brand new one at that, was not a great bet in the middle of Winter. But Lucani was all about mind over matter, and she already saw in her new acquaintance a good deal of potential.
It wasn't yet clear if Thuringwethil had been a leader in the past or simply meant that her parents had been leaders (judging by her youth, Lucani was tempted to guess the latter), but this did give an extra point of stability to this new pack called Sleeping Dragon. As for whether or not she wanted to join, Lucani was not entirely sure. It wasn't that she doubted Thuringwethil's capabilities, it was more that she wanted to be in a pack brimming with life and population.
But perhaps Sleeping Dragon would be exactly that, some day. And perhaps Lucani could help bring that future to harvest.
"Why 'Sleeping Dragon'?" she asked politely, intrigued by the name.
