Redhawk Caldera I Don't Have the Right Name, or the Right Looks, but I Have Twice the Heart

Mommy didn't give much of an answer, and so Eljay just looked away, feeling uncomfortable and out of place. This feeling was only amplified when the stranger greeted a wolf that Eljay hadn't even met yet. He was obviously part of the Caldera, though, since mommy was amicable towards him.

Eljay didn't really understand why the female was turned down, but she was. He remembered that others had been turned down before, like Njal, but never by mommy or daddy themselves. Mommy seemed uncomfortable with the notion of turning down the female -- maybe even guilty? -- and Eljay observed in further silence, not speaking again unless something was asked of him.
