Broken Antler Fen A simple hello could lead to a million things

Brandy explained that she and her mother had been here since the pack's founding. That made Aviana feel a little better, knowing Seb trusted them enough to found a pack with them. He wouldn't just do that for anyone, right? What's your Mom's name? she asked. If she ran into her in the future, Aviana would at least know her name, and know she was good, too. At least, she assumed so.

She explained she understood how Aviana felt, being along for a while, and then integrating into a pack. The flighty female was glad the other was empathetic, though Aviana's situation was a bit different. Still, she hoped they didn't think her rude that she didn't meet and greet as much as a newcomer was maybe expected to. How many wolves are here? she asked, keeping her voice soft. She had smelled a bunch of different scents upon her arrival, but they were all so mashed together that one ran into another, and she lost tracked eventually.
