The Sentinels Hakuna Matata

Taking a step closer to Solenya, Kirain offered a gentle nuzzle to her shoulder in quiet appreciation. It had been far too long since someone had shown such willingness to help her. Unbidden, memories from her stolen past stirred—bitter and persistent—but she shoved them back down. Not now. Not here. This moment was what mattered.

As Solenya continued, Kirain tilted her head, a puzzled expression spreading across her face.
Hit and run? What does that mean? And what about adorable puppies? The first Viridian Sanctum litter!

Her confusion was plain, hanging in the air like a question left unanswered. Kirain was no stranger to feeling out of place in conversations like these, her innocence and inexperience often leaving her scrambling to catch up.

But it was Solenya’s mention of Rodyn that truly hooked her attention. Rodyn? He was aggressive toward you?!

The compliments Solenya had just given the man faded into the background, lost to Kirain’s rising concern. Her ears flicked back, expression darkening. That’s awful! Why would you even want to see someone like that again?

She scowled softly, her tone laced with both confusion and quiet disapproval as she questioned the judgment of the wolf she had only just begun to look up to.
