Golden Glade welcome to hell

Aspen, unaware of any potential danger, or past troubles Nico had faced she continued to search for answers. She nudged him trying to snap him out of whatever land he was in. "Nico..?" she said once more concern ever growing on her maw. 

What was going on with the male. This was not the Nico she remembered, this was just a shell of a wolf that once was. What happened to him... she frowned slightly gazing briefly at the water but remaining ever alert as she watched Nico for some sort of response. Nudging him a second time hoping for some sort of reaction.
