Stavanger Bay As the Tide Returns

Heph smiled, it warmed her that Atka thought she would make a good mother. The grey toned wolf might not come across as especially nurturing but she felt that she would do her best for any pups of hers and she knew that she would do her utmost as a hunter to ensure that they were cared for. "Thank you. I'll admit I'm less sure but I'll do my best by any pups that I have or that are in my care blood or no."

She grinned, laughing a bit but adding. "I'd appreciate it, I'll admit you have good taste even if Dreven's rough around the edges." Truthfully even though Heph did not feel the spark of romance with the large dark-furred behemoth she knew that he matched her friend well and Atka had certainly chosen well - or perhaps it was Dreven who should be congratulated for realizing someone like Atka was a catch.

She thought seriously on Atka's question and began answering, slowly at first but growing more confident in her words. "hmmm I'm not sure if I really care about man, woman, or anything like that. But" She thought to Rodyn and Samani who were unfailingly kind in their convictions. "I think I'd like someone with a strong character and bearing, I've met plenty of charming wolves, but I someone kind, at the very least to the wolves important to them." And she thought of the other wolves that she had hunted alongside, the rush of it. "And...well this might be a bit shallow but someone capable of challenging me, someone I could hunt alongside, or run with." They did not need to be more skilled than her, but enough to hold their own.
