Blackfoot Forest however little known the feelings or views of such a man

Mitanni listened quietly as Aaron described in very little detail the events that led up to him choosing to follow the path of a leader. It was simple and easy to follow, and she caught her head beginning to tilt with interest as he mentioned growing into the role and starting off with his sister. She knew that feeling of needing to break out on your own, and had experienced it herself when she'd been of age. Strangely, it seemed losing track of siblings along the way was more common than she'd expected.

It surprised her a little when he went on to mention that his sister leaving had been because of another male. Again, the mottled brown female nodded her head understandingly, though she was wholly unsure how to comment. Her siblings had all been young when they'd split up and set off on their own individual paths, so in this she had no experience. "That's nice for her, I suppose," Mitanni eventually responded, hoping it would do as an answer.

She glanced around at the thick woods again, as if seeing them anew. These were going to be pack lands, a home for wolves that would order everyone into pairs to function unitedly. And she'd been sitting here for a while taking up the future alpha's time. "You probably have important things to do, don't you?" Mitanni questioned with just a hint of guilt, realizing she'd been keeping Aaron from whatever he'd been searching for when she'd found him.
