The injured female stiffened slightly at Floki's sudden approach, but Pyx was quick to reassure her. He smiled faintly to further show that he meant no harm as Pyx explained how they knew each other. "We're both from Moonspear," he added, then quickly said, "It's nice to meet you, Chase."

I've been trying to do some walking to work on my endurance," he said, flexing his left foreleg as he spoke. He glanced at Chase. "Pyx helped me out with some medicine after I had a bad fall, so you're in good hands."

His expression darkened as he addressed his reason for being so far from home. "I'm looking for Lazarus -- you haven't seen him, have you?" He doubted it, but it wouldn't hurt to ask. He exchanged a sympathetic look with the she-wolves as they chewed dutifully on an apparently nasty-tasting plant.
