Hideaway Strath Returning

@Kigipigak on the borders.

 

He had ran through the territory on his way to the woman’s without even thinking of o smell for scent markers and he didn’t want to upset anyone. He was skilled fighter but a whole pack? He would be stupid to try. 

The brute caught another rabbit hopefully as a peace offering to whoever led this pack so that he may return to his family.

The scent of rabbit hit his nose first, wafting from the south. Kigipigak moved on an intercept course, planning to reach the clearing which had been chosen for the strangers; he got partway there and found the scent was closer to the water. So, with a huff, he moved through the trees quickly enough and saw the shape of a man.

He held a rabbit, which checked out. Kigipigak called out with a bark to let the stranger know he was there. As he got closer he studied the man.

You are one of Reyna's?

He gave a swift nod to the male. He was nearly the same size of the man and perhaps the peace offering was a good ideas after all. “Perhaps. I must speak it over with my family.” He was getting old after all he just wanted to keep his family safe now. “How would all this work? Two packs close together with one needing to cross through the other to do well pretty much anything?” He questioned.

He wasn't decided? Curious.

As for the diplomacy of it all, Kigipigak gave a deep sigh as he motioned towards the path, to instruct the man of the way. He followed for a short distance until the path widened between the trees and gave enough space for them to walk side by side.

I don't know what possessed her to claim that place. All I can do is protect my own family, and Kigipigak gave the man a look, as he had spoken of his own family and could potentially share this view.

For now I will escort people. I admit, I don't know how long this will last.

Reyna hadn't been keen on the idea initially, and whatever agreement they'd reached with one another couldn't be called a truce exactly; Kigipigak had demanded a solution, and got one.

He followed the man and listened to him speak and he understood the frustration he had about the complicated arrangements. “I’m not sure about it but if I do join them. I can assure you; you won’t have any issues from my family. I’m just seeking safety for my family and future children.” He didn’t entirely trust the woman he had met and it all seems like a shit show waiting to happen.

I think that is what everyone wants. He comments.

It is true; he escorts this man and anyone else in order to keep an eye on them, and to keep his new family safe. If those loyal to Reyna continue to flow through Napatuqvik then it will prove a greater concern to Kigipigak, and he will be sure to bring this to the Issumatar.

Soon enough they are following the winding river; it will be some time as they cross through the territory, but eventually the pair will reach the other side where the path leads towards the strath, and from there Hashut can find their way to Reyna.
