Nova Peak Yeah, I'm loving all your warning signs

Taikon was pleased when Takiyok stood beside him. He reached out and prodded her gently with his nose, quickly redirecting his gaze to Wylla. Whatever she had called them here for was not good news. For a time, they waited for the pack to arrive. The leader calmly corrected behaviours she needed to without words. When they were all settled, she revealed the reason for the urgency.
The prince listened attentively. Wolves had settled on cliffs, and Wylla did not like it. She went on to explain that all who settled upon the cliffs were evil. She likened their presence to that of the Saints when they had been on Sawtooth. Taikon expected her to suggest that they tighten their borders and send scouts to ensure the intruders were not he sort she was suggesting.
Then, she didn't.
She wanted to push them out entirely. Taikon blinked and licked his lips anxiously, looking at his new leader in disbelief. This seemed to him the very definition of warmongering, for she had been strangely careful to avoid saying that the newcomers had done something to Sagtannet. Wylla was prematurely suggesting to the pack that they "nip it in the bud" before the newcomers became a problem, but Taikon did not think this wise.
He shifted his position and looked at Takiyok. He was not in a place in the pack where he could openly disagree with her. However, when he had signed on to this gig, it had seemed quite clear that he had entered a peaceful group of families who had no interest in doing anything other than defending their own when need be.
Taikon tried to think of a way to respond that would not make her angry, but he couldn't think of anything. So, he did the next best thing and asked it in the form of a question. Have they attacked any of us? he asked calmly, meeting Wylla's gaze for a moment. Though Taikon had also judged the Saints without meeting them, it had been on the evidence that Aphrodite had been brutally assaulted by their leader.
