Duskfire Glacier line your lips and keep 'em closed

Askari wanted some direction in how to proceed, and Lane wasn't sure how to advise her. She'd never had to deal with anything of this magnitude before, and in such a position of responsibility. 

"All of the pack's resources are at your disposal. Take whoever you need." Lane couldn't think of anything more important that anyone could be doing, aside from the scouting initiative. She would trust in her new Eta's judgement.

"Thanks, Askari," Lane spoke with an air of finality. Looking over her shoulder, she frowned. Where was Arius? It was strange for him to miss a summons. She would debrief the conversation with her student later. She thought he might even want to join Askari's task force, especially once he realized it could be a ticket to promotion.

"Let me know if you need anything," she asked, by way of parting. As long as Askari had no more questions, Lane would depart with a nod of gratitude.
