Rising Sun Valley these battle scars don't fade

It appeared that Kaede was one of the last to this little shindig. There were so many gathered that he almost turned tail and skirted the group, but as he rounded he noted one who did not belong among their number. The tension was palpable and so he paused, cocking his head to better hear the words being spoken. Here he would remain, in the background, listening and noting all that was passed. He could guess immediately who this wolf was and why he was here.

If anything this should prove an interesting encounter.
