Much to Ruenna's surprise, Towhee was able to report on Nyra's recent whereabouts. Never in a million years would Ruenna have thought that Nyra could lay low and assimilate into a pack like Moonglow, given all that she had heard about the woman.

Towhee shared her personal assessment of Nyra, which was on par with what everyone else seemed to think. "That's the general consensus," Ruenna confirmed.

Towhee asked for time to think, which was expected. She mentioned that her connection with Ruenna was probably the biggest deciding factor, and Ruenna smiled. Towhee's words earned her a nudge of affection. "I could definitely use some more family around here, too." Towhee had no idea how much she was needed. Ruenna imagined that the addition of someone like Towhee could go a long way towards easing the tension between the soldiers and civilians, and she would also help Mereo bridge the gap from a pack that was strictly military to one that had room for familial relationships. 

Speaking of family...

"Hey-- I'm really glad that all the kids are doing so well. Who would have thought..?" Ruenna trailed off, shaking her head with a smile. Oddly enough, it sounded like the end of Redhawk Caldera had been the swift kick from the nest that they had been needing to really fly. "I love the thought of Caracal and Killer off together, having adventures and discovering the world.." Ruenna could have gone on gushing (Caracal had been a particular favorite), but Towhee seemed like she was trying to get going. 

"Well anyway.. I'll see you when you get back," Ruenna agreed to Towhee's plan. They hadn't gotten to see much of the canyon-- Ruenna was a very slow mover, unfortunately. Germanicus would be a better tour guide for Towhee when she returned. He would be able to take her up to the patrol paths that snaked up the walls of the canyon and along the rim, which Ruenna imagined she would enjoy much more. 

Ruenna would walk Towhee out and then part from her after a quick hug. She was glad to know it would only be a few days before they saw each other again.
