Stone Circle One has not returned home

That's true, he pauses, mulling over Valette's words. Thank you. Evergreen perks up; his tail gives a few wags and a smile curves across his muzzle. Its always nice to be praised by others, but even more so coming from respected leadership. He really ought to start looking on the brighter side more often.

His tail sways nervously when Valette mentions becoming a Scout. Of course, the bearish wolf wants to learn, but... Uhm. Pause. It is interesting, but to be honest, I prefer settling down in one area. I think I've done enough adventuring for a life time. He jokes, glancing away sheepishly. It just doesn't feel right sitting around when... a person of the family is missing, y'know? I'd be happy to go with the Scout though! Probably better that Valette knows not to send Evergreen alone; he doesn't know of Lost Creek Hollow, but assumes its a neighbor nearby... or at least, a pack Easthollow is on friendly terms with.
