Neverwinter Forest alone in the clouds all blue

Simmik also liked the quiet and like Cam, had remained fairly isolated since returning home. She had spent most of her time on solitary patrols or hunts, or exploring the cliffs that hugged the northern edge of their territory. As she had learned during her conversation with Mal upon his return home, she wasn't always the best company. So to save everyone the discomfort, herself included, she had tried to keep to herself as much as possible.

The scent of the newcomer drifted by on the breeze, making her freeze and inspect it further. She had picked it up around the territory, knew it was a recent joiner who was supposed to be here. Still, she couldn't stop the momentary panic that sent a jolt to her heart. She gave herself a minute to get things under control before starting to track him down. She should at least introduce herself to the new packmates since she hadn't met any of them on the borders recently. 

When she found her new packmate, he was staring strangely at a butterfly. She watched him for a few moments, gaze moving between the shadow and the insect. She never paid much attention to the bugs around here, but she did always appreciate the beauty of butterflies. That's an interesting one, she finally said, fiery, intuitive gaze locked on him as she waited for him to acknowledge her.
