Blacktail Deer Plateau A Stranger to This World

Kisu hesitated at her suggestion of joining a pack. This is what he had wanted, wasn't it? A place to belong. And it would guarantee more time spent with Pied. "I feel like before I try to join this pack, that I should travel to the west first--" he paused "--there is a large sea that way. I saw the coast from the mountaintop. I would like to be near the water before I commit to anything.. I cannot join and then just journey on my own, for my loyalties would be to myself and not the pack at that point. I understand you cannot come with, but I hope your leader Hawkeye would be okay with us meeting now and then. I may stay here eventually, but now is not right." He smiled softly and looked down.

What am I doing? It's right here... everything I want. Am I just running, like I did from Terrapie? No. That had been different. Though, it was possible that he could lose Pied to another as well. But he felt that there was a calling for him to journey to the great body of water.

He did not want the conversation to end here, though. "Do you think your pack will migrate again, or stay here for good? And what made you follow this Hawkeye so far from Blackfoot Forest?" She must be a powerful figure to take over an old pack and make them move. He wondered if there was anything suspicious about her.
