Dragoncrest Cliffs our hands are tied here if we stay

Oops. Njord realized he had flubbed his introduction when Meerkat’s posture changed. She thought he was the leader of Sapphique. Njord looked to Erzulie, sheepishly. Sorry! his expression said.

Ahem, he cleared his throat. Erzulie’s tha queen, not me, he wanted to say… but the two women engaged conversation so brisk that there was nary a second to interject. Erzulie looked to him knowingly, and Njord simply smiled and stayed silent besides her. Maybe he could clear it up later.

He was surprised to hear that Meerkat was Kaertok’s daughter. And that Meerkat also had two moms (like Rosalyn and Erzulie) and an additional dad. Njord gave an impressed face. Wolves in the Teekon certainly were different. She also listed other packs in the area. Moonspear. Redhawk Caldera. Kaistleoki. Names Njord wasn’t familiar with. His tenure in the wilds was short lived and it seemed there was a whole world to explore as well as different clans to meet.

Erzulie seemed to have a better handle on what Meerkat said. Njord’s expression remained blank, and his head shook when the time was right. He had nothing to add to Erzulie’s answer.
