One side of his body was plastered in snow by now, the other side still retaining his bushy and earthen hues. He didn't mind, however, it only made him strive onwards in his task. If the pack were to be established they'd need strong borders. To keep other packs as well as predators out. He knew a cougar wouldn't come close to a strong pack border; not unless they were stupid. Or very hungry.
He didn't want to think about the horror that could unfold if a cougar entered a pack in birthing season.
Many casualties, undoubtedly.
The man paused again, taking in the environment of his new haunt, home rather. It wasn't home without Grezig. He let out a long sigh, his breath whipped away almost instantly by the wind and snow. Was it pointless for him to lay markings in this weather? Did he do it just to keep busy?
He sighed again, turning to see if his markings were even relevant; if so he'd continue his work. If not...he supposed he'd just curl up underground or something; wait out the storm.
He didn't realise there was another until he nearly fell on them -- or they spoke out, whatever came first. Their white coat perfectly camouflaging them in the landscape like they themselves were no more than a form created by the flurries.
"I apologise, I didn't see you there." His voice was level yet welcoming, "What brings you to the borders?" Now, a curiosity hinted his voice -- curiosity and defensiveness. This was his pack now and if the other meant ill, he'd not stand for it.
