Blacktail Deer Plateau "It is our choices that show us who we really are"

Assuming Liri wouldn't have informed a stranger of the number of wolves in their pack, Kavik bowed his head at the woman's first comment, impressed she had picked that up from just the scents at the border. Yes, everyone one has equal say in any matter that affects the pack, Kavik answered. All subordinate ranks are based off of each individual's contribution to the pack. Although, a member may challenge another member for the rank directly above theirs once a month, leadership ranks being the only exclusion, he said in response to her second question. 

The Alpha listened to Ruenna discuss the skills she learned from her previous pack and disagreed with her comment that they were nothing special. Those are all skills we see as very valuable in a packmate, Kavik replied. When she finished her last statement, Kavik decided that the female reminded him of Grezig; very straight forward and to the point. He bowed his head once more and answered, Two more excellent qualities in a pack member. If you're interested, you're welcome to join us. He didn't need to hear anymore; she seemed intelligent and capable and like she would be a nice addition to the ranks. He looked to his mate after he spoke to see if she had any objections or anything else to add.
