Mount Everfall One great big festering neon distraction

Oblivious to the fact that he had been followed up the mountain, Aklark turned to look behind him when he heard an unexpected noise. His eyes fell on a wolf of smaller construction. She was plain in appearance, just as he. However, having never seen her face, Aklark did not recognize her as being one of Tartok. For a moment, he was wary. His eyes narrowed and he studied the stranger with incredible scrutiny. 

Ears pinning slightly forward, Aklark took a slow step toward the stranger. And then another. When he drew near enough to the stranger, he could smell Silaluk's scent on her coat. She was Tartok, and with that revelation, Aklark's unease dissapated. He backstepped to give his companion some space. "Aklark," he introduced, allowing his tail to wag in a friendly manner behind him as he spoke.
