Having a healthy amount of curiosity wasn’t bad … but everyone knows that old saying. Curiosity killed the Wolf. Mountainous areas weren’t Aliana forfeit, her wide paws would take up too much space for her to perform any finessing through narrow rocky paths so she wasn’t planning on doing any climbing.
For now, she lurked through the spacious caverns of Sunbeam Lair with wary slow steps, taking a sniff every few steps. Naturally, if this was claimed land, she would have smelt it and she’d already been headed off and confronted. Scents were faint, coming and going but never persistent. Wolves been through here but only in passing. Good.
As she sauntered through the caves, Aliana could hear the faint click of her claws on the stone, bouncing off the walls, echoing down the tunnel.
Huh…
❝… Hello …?❞ Aliana could hear the anxious uncertainty in her voice echoing back to her, sounding like it was running down the tunnel while it got fainter and fainter. She had never heard something like this before and in that moment, a child-like wonder sparked in her. A slight smile curled on the corner of her muzzle.
❝… Hello!❞ The voice bounced back louder than before. A brass-necked idea sparked in her head and before she even thought it through, she lets out a hearty bark that was a bit louder than she was comfortable with. Aliana sucked in her breath while the bark echoed back to her and down the tunnels noisily before everything fell silent.
Aliana waited for a moment like the cave was gonna crash down on her before letting out a sigh. Best to keep quiet for now - Don't know if there's any ...unsavory company nearby… She kept moving once she sated her curiosity, she’ll shuffle back out into the Valley.

This is the law of the Jungle, as old and as true as the sky, And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack.
