King Elk Forest Where'd the love go?

The girl, taken by surprise, drew a sharp breath and jumped backward. She eyes the woman before realising she was no threat, and it was just her imagination.
Surely the youth wouldn't come to harm here.

"I don't know where my pack are. They left the other forest." She gave a soft smile, trying to lighten her own mood, but knew she was unlikely to find Kai or Arrowbella.  "I just like company, that's all."  Her tail waved softly, happy to at last be talking to someone with kind words. She started forward, sniffing curiously to the girl; wondering where she hailed from.
Her head tilted slightly before speaking again, "My name's Phex, what's yours?" She grinned, hoping to make a good impression on the stranger.
