Noctisardor Bypass [J] what stands before the sun

Joining!

It had taken her weeks to decide, but now she stood before the threshold of the pass with her eyes cast out to the distant lands that would hopefully become her new home. The chill winds of the north were creeping with their bone-bare fingers as the summer season waned; easy prey would soon go to ground, leaving her with nothing to eat. The male, @Shadow, had spoken before of leaving Swiftcurrent. It was here his scent grew strong again. Solveig had little doubt she would have to impress the stone warrior to find herself counted among them, but she was not worried. If not here, than she would find shelter elsewhere and he would be left wanting for a strong, intelligent beast in his ranks.

The golden woman lifted her voice to the skies, calling out for the wolves who called the Bypass their home. She put no thread of musicality into her song; it was business, and it was important. Though she would gladly wait hours to be greeted, wolves did not often tolerate such nonsense on their borders and it was best for any discussions on the edges of claimed land to be finished quickly.

She did not seat herself in the manner of someone lazy, but stood with all four paws firm against the ground. Her head was even with the line of her back, and her tail resting easily between her ankles. Any wolf who happened upon her would find her the picture of submission and respect.
