Totoka River Screaming into the pillow

Silence lets out one of her rare time deaf noises, something between a yip and a groan of happiness. The noise punctuated with a large grin as she strikes a play bow pose, excited for their journey ahead and relieved to have a friend who understands her. Already Silence has begun to think of Aniu as a permanent fixture in her life and cannot fathom losing her new companion.

The wolfdog responds to Aniu's teasing by speeding up, galloping after the longer legged wolf before her. Hope blossoms in her, certain that they will find their own people soon.
