Speedy gave Wraen a warm smile, grateful for her offer. Thank you, she replied. Winter was a major worry for her recently, so it put her mind at ease to know she would have somewhere to go should she need it. If Wraen had any say in how the pack was run, Speedy was sure she'd like it there; she seemed capable and strong, which were both needed in a pack leader.

Speedy was excited to talk about her adventures, and excitement bloomed on her face at the other wolf's question. Well, I've met quite a few different wolves. I also found a nice place with springs of warm water that I go to when the nights are cooler. She paused for a minute to think of anything else worth noting and when she thought of something, she added, Recently, I got myself a little lost in the mountains west of here, but I met a nice wolf who helped me find my way out. Her expression turned a little sheepish at the admission. She considered it a learning experience, though. Not only had she expanded her knowledge of the surrounding territories, but it helped her remember to be better aware of her surroundings. The potential danger of that situation had not escaped her; she knew she was lucky to have found a friendly wolf instead of someone that wanted to cause her harm while she was lost all alone in the mountains. 

She smiled at the mention of the coast. I did make my way to the ocean, and it was beautiful. I plan to make more visits there, she replied, her friendly smile returning to her face. The ocean water scared her a little, but it wasn't enough to keep her from enjoying the view.
