Nimbus Summit wrong town to stop in

antha frequented the borders of atautsikut's new home, intent on marking their claim and familiarizing herself with their summit and the surrounding lands. it was often tedious work, monotonous in the ways that mattered. there was always something exciting to be found among the flora, but that wasn't her purpose on these trips, so antha ignored the temptation.

but today, it seemed a border patrol had brought its own intrigue for once. a stranger, young and golden-furred, gawping at atautsikut's mountain. antha greeted him with a friendly chuff, cautious but welcoming as she approached.

hello. you've found the border of atautsikut. is there something we can do for you, or are you just passing through? the young wolf didn't smell of any others that antha could discern, but perhaps he had come from an allied pack. she knew atautsikut had friendly relations with other packs, though not the full extent of it.
