Northstar Vale shed a little light

He hadn't left the Keep in weeks. Although it was cold and snowy, Tambourine decided that today would be a good day for a little bit of travel. He notified @Stark and @Banner that he would be leaving the territory and intended to be home by nightfall. He then headed toward the rear of the pack's domain, climbing into the mountains there and then dropping into the valley below. He left a trail of paw prints in the deep snow as he headed toward the Duskvale residence.

He was almost to Northstar Vale when a howl rose into the air. Although the message wasn't for him, Tambourine nonetheless howled back. He then made his way toward the call's source, his pace slowing as he encroached on what he assumed was claimed territory. The scents on the air were stale at best, though, and by the time he arrived to find a solitary stranger seated in the snow, his brow was furrowed quizzically.

"Hello," he said, mindful of his posture as he neared the beige stranger, "are you from Duskvale?" Where was Saena? Where was Warbone? Where was their pack?
