Thistle had she been privy with his thoughts could have agreed that others left and did not stay. However, when one was accepted into the pack, they were taking them at their word that they would stay. So to tell her up front that he would not stay was upsetting and she was doing exactly what she thought Ragnar would do.

Thistle growled softly Vali I assume? I have not heard very good things of him. You do not have to worry here. Ragnar views Dagrun as his brother, perhaps his only brother at this point. She wasn't really sure what to say there. The other brothers had all betrayed him, Dagrun had not. She was pleased to offer him that small bit of good will.

Thistle nodded, smiling softly Yes I know your father. He actually gifted Ragnar and I with a wonderful hide when I had my first litter. He was a kind wolf at least to me, though i know his nature is savage as is Ragnars.
