Here she was, after all, taking care of a creature that wasn't even of her own species- so surely, Solveig guessed, she had a good deal of maternal instinct. She would have to make sure to tell her own children very strictly that Greyfalcon's guest was not a snack, and would be treated with the same hospitality they showed toward other wolves...Except perhaps with a bit less of the rough-housing.She looked upon her good friend with gratitude, “Thank you so much, we’d both appreciate that.”
"We will find some food for the both of you," Solveig said, gesturing for Greyfalcon to find herself welcome in her home again, and to follow her toward the woodlands where some food had been cached. Their supplies were getting low, which prompted her to bring up the next topic.
"I am glad you have come back to us, now," Solveig said. "We will be moving very soon; we wanted to wait for your return, but the Keep is fairly inhospitable now, and will be worse when the snow falls." She explained. While the area looked idyllic, it was quiet- far too quiet. Hunted for seasons by the resident falcons, there was very little left behind for the wolves to hunt aside from large game, and the pack was too small to have much success in that area.
"It will only be a matter of days now; I am re-thinking where we shall go, but I am thinking further inland." She said. "Did you meet with Moontide in your journeys?" She asked.
She followed Solveig, listening intently as they went. This was serious, she was used to the cold, however she could tell by the slight windchill it was most definitely getting inhospitable…. Moontide, that was right. She had a message from the Beta. Heph.
“I met with Moontide, yes. The Beta Heph greeted me at the borders and showed me her home, then the way back to my own.” She continued on…. “These were her words exactly: “If you would like Moontide’s help with anything, the offer still stands, just send word.”
She thought back on Heph, what a kind wolf she was. She was also so eager to hopefully form an alliance with their neighbors.
“If it should happen that you don’t wake up tomorrow, will this have been a life that meant something?” Hawkeye Pierce
