Nova Peak Mouth full of gum,

Ordinarily an attentive leader, Wylla had missed Asra's induction to the pack entirely on account of spending more and more time in the Tangle, hunting and watching for Rusalka's wolves. Soon, she would bring Sagtannet to bear against them, but in the meantime, she was content to harass them from afar. They could scarce step beyond their borders without smelling her now, and she hoped that knowing they were watched brought them as much anxiety as their proximity brought her.

She stumbled across Sagtannet's newest purely by mistake, and the sight and smell of yet another woman in the pack put Wylla immediately on edge. At least she knew Takiyok and Star were no threat to her rank or her wants on account of being too old or having other prospecfts (at least, she'd gone ahead and assumed that Taikon was more than a friend to Takiyok). This one was an unknown. Asra was black and white, not unlike Wylla in her biased observation but with starker colours that contrasted more sharply, a strange pink nose, and pale blue eyes that seemed like they'd been chipped from a glacier.

Hello, she said with a mixed air of formality and stiff disapproval.
