Mudminnow River Why is the piggy bank empty! Am I that poor?

Of course, when Iolana wasn't being cautious was when somebody would approach. Not being able to hear them left her clueless of their presence. So, she kept on eating her meal until it was gone before she looked up. Startled, the wisp slung herself with some remaining grace with quicksilver reflexes, she'd gotten used to people sneaking up on her. 

When she reached her full height, which isn't very tall mind you, she felt a growl climbing her throat. Usually, these kinds of situations went better, with a suspicious but kind smile as Iolana introduced herself. But Iolana didn't know how long this wolf had been here or even if he had released a sort of threat while watching her. So, on instinct, she only let a fraction of the guttural growl escape the lady. Making it sound like more of a viscous purr than an actual growl until it increased in volume. "Ara ko wai au? Whakamaramahia e koe!" the lady threatened.
