The Sunspire Fragile and stripped to the core

The scent of the leader was common along the borders. He knew it well at this point and hadn't been pulled from is task initially. The scent was fresh, telling him she had been here recently. He stored the info away for no reason other than it was helpful to pick up on everyone's routines. 

It wasn't until he heard her chuff from behind him that he broke his focus and slowed down a little. She asked him a question, thankfully one that was easy to answer with a quick nod. He didn't necessarily mind her company. Of all the new wolves in his life, he was most interested in knowing more about Arbiter. She reminded him of his father—a strong, commanding presence. He matched her pace, hoping to convey that he would patrol with her. Then he dropped his head to inspect the scents as he moved.
