Falls of the Hinterlands anima

actually just going to get this up bc I need to get some timeline up for him <3 i can open it up if you rather though, so no obligation

In the aftermath of the fight, Ashlar did what he could for any wounded. He showed @Reki how to best staunch blood in wounds and how to hopefully prevent infection. He was a quiet student but Ashlar was proud of the help he gave. He was sure to let the younger wolf know it whenever he could.

The outcome wasn't as bad as he thought, but as happy as he was that they'd returned safely, he knew they hadn't accomplished what @Avicus wanted. Her revenge had been stolen by a bear and Ashlar wasn't sure if he should be grateful or upset. The only thing that he was sure of was that his friend was suffering. She'd built an army with that sole focus, but now that this was gone, he hoped she could find a new future to look towards. He just wasn't sure how to help her find one she could willingly embrace.

And then there was another question, one that he still didn't know how to ask. It felt like a betrayal whether he did or didn't. He couldn't explain why.

Ashlar gathered up his courage and went looking for her, the sound of the nearby falls matching the pounding of his nervous heart.
