Redsand Canyon Friendship

Kallik thought this particular ally was awfully needy. He wondered what the reason might be for offering them the alliance in the first place when they weren't yet established enough to keep their own claim safe. He supposed the imperator had his reasons—likely thinking of the future. Being allied to a pack in the vale would be beneficial, but he wondered how much Germanicus was willing to give to get Kinfolk to a place where they were an asset instead of a burden. 

These thoughts were all likely to stay thoughts, though he wouldn't mind learning the imperator's perspective. He was too angry with him now to seek him out for any reason other than his duties, so he would just have to speculate.

Towhee had nothing to add and called for the imperator. He guessed she wasn't sure of the right thing to do either.
