Shadewood I heard voices

The titan nodded slowly, however, his frown unmoving -- unlike it did with the dark king --  but it didn't change how he felt.
"Kai." His gritty tone grappled with the syllables, but it wasn't too different from Cry. Just crisper. 
He felt happy and accepted, a strange feeling a solitary bear should be feeling. He accepted the food she'd brought him, and made a promise to himself. 
Something no bear has done before. He promised he would hunt for this pack in the spring.
Maybe just one kill for them, a fawn, an offering to help the winter-stricken. He hoped that when the dark king returned, it would be soon so he could sleep.

He exposed his teeth as he reached for the grouse, taking it up with the care of a mother to her cub, and looked at Kai. He watched her for an unmoving moment, letting silence fill the void as he wondered if she were to speak again.
