Hushed Willows hammer out the details

It was a dark figure, which marked a third shadow within her life. The nearer they came to one another, the more Tavi could see of the stranger - and she recognized him as the wolf who had aided her during that tumultuous night ages ago. She couldn't think of his name though, which made her feel immensely guilty. Nothing particularly, she hastily corrected, because really there was nothing wrong. And since he was a healer, that was likely where his mind went first. I'm hungry like everyone else around here, but y'know, we'll all manage, ah, but then why did she call for him? Enough blathering girl, get on with it!

I was wondering about the borders. How often do you patrol them? At their mention, she turned her attention to the surroundings and looked around, her gaze sweeping across the area. Maybe we can walk them together? I need to get more familiar with this place, what with living for so long in a cave, but that wasn't the point either. She wanted to ask about border strength, whether they should build a giant wall and make Larksong pay for it, and all sorts of other things. This seemed like the best way to get to know the guard and the territory at once, and at least that way Octavia could judge if this was the right man for the job.
