Noctisardor Bypass Return of a Slave

A sudden urge to wander drove her from the comfort of her hollow that night, and Paar meandered with no fixed destination through the familiar forests of her home. She gazed ahead, seemingly lost in her thoughts until the nearby movements of an unknown wolf captured her attention.

Paarthurnax had never approved of her mate keeping wolves hostage. There had been a couple who'd entered their home dubbed as 'slaves' and, as a wolfess who valued her freedom, she took no part in associating with Shadow's captives. Instead she refrained from straying too close to the woodland in which they were confined, never really voicing her opinion; as a subordinate she'd have had no say in their status anyway, so what was the point?

On closer inspection, she recalled the pallid female who had tried to slink into the gathering unnoticed, and curiously she observed her movements. Moments later, Paarthurnax woofed softly in attempt to catch the alabaster wolfess' attention, and turned toward her to close the distance between them.
