Redhawk Caldera wild wishes

Elwood bobbed his head in agreement as Prima requested a tour of the caldera. That was something he could oblige her with, as he had gotten to know the territory quite well over the past two months. There were still places that he had yet to explore -- like the numerous tunnels that ran beneath the mountain's surface -- but for the most part, he had a grasp on the terrain.

Of course, he would have to show her the lake at the top of the peak. So before he responded to her second query, he gestured towards the slope and began to move in that direction. "Well, part of our land is made up of this here mountain," he said, glancing over at his pewter companion. Briefly, he thought about how many grey wolves had taken up residence here -- himself, Finley, Somnia and Tempest, to name a few. He then continued with his spiel. "But it's actually a dormant volcano, and the top was blown off in an explosion, leaving a crater. That's where we're headed, so you can see our namesake."

He strode forward quietly for a few seconds, giving Prima a chance to reply to his explanation, then addressed the pack's hierarchy. "Peregrine and Fox are the Alphas. Did you meet one of them? Finley is the Beta female, and I'm actually the Beta male," he said with a sheepish smile and a shrug of his shoulders. He paused again so that she could digest the information as they slowly made their way up the mountainside.
