Wapun Meadow an unexpected journey

as the initial surprise slaked away, indra's posture lessened in its stiff degree; it seemed asp had caught wind of her defensiveness and was quick to supply an explanation (though truly, none was needed) for her presence. indra's expression marginally softened and she regarded the charcoal-brushed woman with a quiet semblance of contemplation.

"who are you?" she asked, failing to respond directly to what the wolf had shared only moments before. in truth, while the meadow spanned before bearclaw, it was neutral territory -- for that, indra would not expend precious energy trying to defend it.
