Emberwood someone say a hail mary for this house

Ku has to take a short break due to RL things, so I'm going to move this forward with her permission :) @Warbone @Silas @Pippin @Larkspur @Shikoba @Little Voice

Her mate seemed to take the stranger's presence similarly to her. He started and made a protective move to stand before Harlyn and Larkspur, but relaxed somehwat as it grew more obvious that this stranger was not there to hurt them. Harlyn was emboldened by her mate's regard of the wolf. "The location of our destination is unknown to us, stranger," Harlyn replied while Mordecai set his calculating, quiet gaze upon the man. "We had to leave our home before the swarm came. Originally we meant to seek shelter with a neighboring pack, but we found their lands abandoned. Now..."

Her voice trailed, leaving the rest of their sad story unspoken. It occurred to her that she might be being a little too honest with this complete stranger, but that seemed to be a new habit of hers. There was something trustworthy about this wolf, just as there had been about Thuringwethil. Harlyn's guard remained up however, due to the presence of her children at this exchange.
