Duskfire Glacier I just love a good mystery, don't you?

This woman's mannerism was different from what Askari was expecting. 

A "warm welcome"? Unheard of.

Her steps eventually ceased. Now the red one stood still; tense and wary. 

Don't think me rude for my honesty, but you don't much exhibit the behavior of any Alpha I would expect. From tales I've heard, most aren't as welcoming to strangers... 

Two ears now lay flat, though the tail emerged from between the legs. This interaction was still uncertain, but it felt right to be a bit more at ease.

You offered your name. It is only fair I offer mine. I am Askari.
