Red turned to look behind herself at Emberwood, which was the name she had decided to use for this aspen forest. What was this place, her friend wanted to know… Well… That was a good question, come to think of it. What did Red think of this place? Over time, it had become more of a home to her than the Sunspire was. And the more wolves she brought here (or she found wandering here, in the case of Meldresi), the more certain she was that she was destined to have a pack in these woods… Eventually. She was definitely not ready to leave Ferdie and the others just yet, especially since she hadn’t even recruited anyone. She couldn’t come here all by herself and expect a pack to simply… appear. That would be the worst kind of wishful thinking.
In the end, she simply turned back to Meldresi and barked. Then she trotted away deeper into the woods, and turned to look at the she-wolf over her shoulder. Her message was clear: Wanna come?
