Duskfire Glacier Lost

His silence is both familiar and yet not. 
The seer could guess that he was thinking over her words, but she didn't know him. Eldritch had only gotten to know solely one other wolf that she could consider herself close to, especially close enough to be certain of their thoughts and so on. 

Coming upon a small tendril of what looked to be water, Eldritch noticed Wintersbane slow, and silently felt gratitude when they drew to a stop and he encouraged her to drink. 
Upon the statement that he was going to grab her something to eat, El mouthed a soft thank you. 
As he trotted off the short distance, Eldritch would ease herself down enough to lap at the icemelt. 

Honestly she hadn't noticed just how thirsty she was. Her throat felt so dry, and as the fresh water went into her system, it took much self control on her part not to drink herself sick. 

All the while, she kept her ears perked for when her new Alpha would return.
