Phoenix Maplewood Before The Light Of Day

Hydra mutely observed the encounter from the shade of the woods, ears pricked atop her crown. She was pleased Desdemona had not contested her sisters position... no other but her had come to greet the stranger. What did not please her, however, was the way the other she-wolf seemed to argue the point. Loyal to Morningside? 

Why were so many wolves so loyal to things that were not loyal to them in turn? It was not at all logical. The leader of Morningside had not been here to greet her; only the cub, and the brown she-wolf herself. Hydra turned, having only caught the final few words shared amongst them, to meet her sister. Long-legged strides soon brought her alongside Alya, rumbling. 

The fact of the matter was, their leader was gone and had not even sent word about himself. He had left Morningside. Hydra had no interest in this territory, but she would aid Alya in taking it over, for a time, if that was what she wanted to do. At the very least, Alya would be able to assist the wolves in considering their next course of action. She was surprised, though, to hear the final set of words. You want to keep Timberlake? she asked, her tone not hiding her curiosity. A cub? Well, she supposed he could be shaped to what they desired, but still, it would require more diligence on their travels.
