Northstar Vale Mitéra

Arsenio sent up the call, then moved to sit just beside Towhee. This would make it harder to converse, though she supposed they could just sit in companionable silence for a few minutes while they waited for her mate to arrive. She appreciated the respite and, after giving him a wan smile, she looked down at the ground and tried to collect her thoughts.

When she felt a touch, she thought it might be Maxim, though it was Tamar’s scent who filled her nose. Towhee looked up in mild surprise, although it made sense for her to be here as well. The Theos offered her a fleeting smile as she moved forward into a quick embrace. Then she settled back against the doorframe to await her better half.

When Maxim came, Towhee immediately read some uneasiness in his face. She plucked herself off the ground to meet him, touching her nose to his cheek. She then turned and situated herself at his flank so they were facing the Alpha pair. Her shoulder pressed into his as she resumed a sit and looked attentively to Arsenio, waiting for him to relay the message to the Nomos.
