Redhawk Caldera On into the gold river

@Allure
OOC: All welcome, of course, but with the intention of joining :)
IC:

With the cold nip of winter in the air, both knew that it was in their best interest to join a pack. Having spent a few nights together in the Great Bear Wilderness, reunited and joined together at last, Shrike felt as though nothing could go wrong. It was with an airy step that he moved alongside his new mate to the lands he'd once called home, with only a pang of regret at the back of his mind- but on that sunny, cool morning, he felt optimistic. He'd scouted the area the day before, of course, and having found no trace of Fox's scent whatsoever, and the scent of Elwood and Finley prevalent in the area, he had a good idea that the heirarchy of the Caldera had shifted. From the woodlands to the shrubby plain they moved, the Caldera breaching the horizon before them as they came to the borders. 

His eyes were sharp, and his nose breathed in several familiar scents. He was relieved to smell Raven, who had been kind to him as well- though he did wonder if she bore any resentment toward him after he'd been exiled by Fox. New alphas, though, meant new rules, and he was willing to undergo some scrutiny by those close to Fox for his return- as long as Elwood would permit the two of them to join. There were a variety of new scents in the area as well, but this, to Shrike, hinted at a thriving pack. 

He nosed Allure's cheek gently, hoping to bring a smile to her face. He sensed a trace of hesitance within her, but providing they were both welcome, he felt the Caldera would make a good home for them both.
