A New Beginning (Raven's Joining)

(Understood, makes a better plot too. :D)


A twinge of pain sparked her stomach as she forced herself to not crumble under the stare. "I speak not a lie. Nor a truth. I speak half of one, and half of the other. " After speaking, her defiance of being called a liar had given her a bit of strength. "What I desire to be is a member of the Stavanger Bay. Not an enemy of it. So me being a loner..." She returns his cold emotionles stare with her own, filled with the flare of defiance she held. "...Means I am not a threat to you, wolf. I give you no hostility. Return the respect you wish to recieve." She did not trust her own words, but she kept the face of a wolf who would not tolerate disrespect when she did no wrong.

She dared to glance over her shoulder to gaze at the moon that threatened to peak over the clouds. It was 3 weeks from Full. Such a favorite time of lunar lapse for her. Raven refused to let any insults bite her internal peace at the Tarfa ca Pydari, Time of Peace. Especially not from a male who was swift to judge her.
