Swiftcurrent Creek Old Man [IC Joining]

Remus > Bazi > @Leon > Cadfael - I think? (Edit: Thanks Will, you're right!)

The kerfuffle attracted Bazi like a moth to the light - the only difference being that Bazi knew she might meet trouble when she reached her destination, whilst the unsuspecting moth hadn't the foggiest clue that it was about to kick the bucket.

But it wasn't trouble she met. Leon and Cadfael, both new recruits, had caught a trespasser - an old one, much older than Galileo. He sagged against the ground, battered by exhaustion and rain alike.

The pale Alpha barked to announce her arrival, nodding appreciatively at her two patrolling pack-mates. At Remus she shot a perplexed little frown, lowering her head to look him in the eyes and take a deep breath. The scent of damp wolf filled her nostrils, but nothing more sinister than that. No rot, no death - not yet, anyway. And Bazi was not in a position to turn wolves away.

"You don't smell sick," she announced, looking to her wardens for confirmation. It was clear that he sought sanctuary, and.. why not? Old wolves had their place - Bazi's own mother was six when her final litter left home, and might have survived longer for all her children knew. The Swiftcurren queen re-focused on the the old man at her feet. "What can you do for us?"
