Stone Circle set the show

@Valette! I'm very excited for this thread <3

Ezekiel was possibly starting to get over his elongated period of mourning. Steady's death and Valette's distancing herself from her had been extremely hard on the young man, he'd felt even more alone than he ever had before. He personally excluded himself from the pack, avoiding its other members when he could, only leaving his den for mandatory meetings and hunts, patrols and to relieve himself. He had been through much death in his life, but for some reason, this was the one that got him.

But he was at last starting to move on, as he had many times in the past. He would never forget Steady, and he would always love Valette, but he had to keep living. He still had Krypton, and even though he didn't know most of them; this pack was his new family to protect. With or without his brother, Ezekiel was going to keep protecting them. Today, he was taking a rather large step in getting better. He was going to talk to Valette. Who knew how it would go, but he had to see her. She was probably just as broken inside at Steady's death as he, if not more so. They'd been mates after all.

It would be easier for them both, he believed, for them to at least be friends again, and maybe they could work through any troubles they had together. He wanted her to know that he would be there for her. She had to know that. And so after his dawn patrol, he wandered inland to find her, catching onto her scent trail quickly and following it.
