Phoenix Maplewood and way down we go

sorry to hold this up, with all the players getting involved I wasn't aware it was my turn

Tapeesa doesn't understand the words said between the two groups though her eyes flick between each wolf as they speak, as if tracking their movement through the air. Despite the fact that she doesn't speak the common tongue, the words are not hard to understand. It seems that even though this pack understands their plight, or perhaps even understands that they're intending to move further north soon, but they will not allow the group of travelers to remain on the neutral territory all these southerners seem so inclined to remind them of.

Uki is vaguely aware of the fisher woman, for once lacking the immediate presence of Pesi at her side, moving to her side. Indeed, Tupilaq can feel the rest of Siarut's followers gathering at her back. They outnumber the duo before them - for a male approaches spewing questions though Uki remains focused on nanuk and the unfamiliar she-wolf - but there's more where these two come from; they're not likely to win in any fight.

Tapeesa does not understand what the silver woman before them says, but she can sense the threat in it. The berserker shifts, waiting for some sign of what comes next.
