Northstar Vale fōr

Chaudry away on his spontaneous trip, his so-called 'search' for Tousaint, Pala was quickly finding herself overworked.

Viskani had offered to assist her, insisted that she enlist Mnemosynes to take on some of her patrols, but Pala could not find it within herself to accept. She could handle the work, but she supposed that it would have been nice to curl up within her den rather than to have been stuck in the rain.

It brought her no joy when the scent of another cut through the rain, and it only irritated her further when the scent of the ridge wolves clung to them.

Spotting a figure, her first thought was that she could not understand what it was about an open field that seemed to drive these wolves so close to their borders. Though upon closer inspection, she was not quite sure that this was a wolf at all.

Pausing at the treeline, she let out a bark with the hopes of grabbing the attention of the other.
