All Welcome 
scout thread?
Traveling all day in an attempt to find notable locations, the cowboy ventured onward coming across a thickly wooded forest. What might be somewhat navigatable during the day was turned to pure darkness as he tried to make heads or tales of the turns in the inky woods.

Just enough moonlight crept through patches of the woods to give him an idea of the land, but he was mostly moving through instinct. Truthfully, he should have camped out until morning arose, then at least he would be able to take note of any landmarks or places of interest. Instead, he could only make out trees and noted the feel of moss and soft foliage under his paws.

With all that had happened, deaths, reappearances — oh, how her heart ached and fluttered in joy simultaneously — the Ostrega was loathe to leave the mountain. Yet Hydra's due date drew near. Soon, the Alpha's litter would be the sole focus of the pack for months on end and all would be scorned for leaving for too long. This was her only chance to gather as many herbs and food as possible. Losing two capable hunters in one fell swoop was not healthy for the caches; caches Hydra would no doubt draw upon whilst her children were helpless whelps.

Lyra had left Moonspear at first light, first visiting the Spine before heading to the dark forest with a determined glint to her eye. Grief gnawed at the edges of her consciousness but she knew if she just kept busy, she wouldn't have to dwell.

Herbs. Any sort would do. It had grown very dark and very late but she pushed on, pausing in her dogged stride as the scent of another hit her, overpowering the smells of the various plants here. Her lip lifted in irritation as she rose her head, searching for the source of the scent so she could tell them to move on.

It wouldn't take long for footsteps to hit the male's ears. Someone else was here, and by the smell of it, they belonged to a pack. Surely he hadn't crossed into another pack's territory, he checked! (This time) With no intent on being interpreted as a trespasser, Tobi let out a howl to call for whoever else that was lurking nearby.

Could he be asking for death right now? Possibly. But who knows, perhaps someone else was searching through the dark woods. Maybe they could help each other out. After all, he just wanted to know more of the land around Kaistleoki, if they knew the area and were willing to share any information he would gladly give something in return.

Unexpectedly, a howl went up nearby, and after pinpointing where it had come from, Lyra headed towards it with a mild curiosity. She was certain whoever she shared this dark woodlands with knew they had company by now, hence the howl, but she was doubting their intelligence. Who drew strangers towards them in the cover of night?

Why was she being so daft as to answer the call?

Nevertheless, the woman quietly snaked her way towards him, testing the air as she drew near. A pack wolf, but not of one she recognised. As he came into view (as much as she could make out, anyway), the Ostrega sized him up with a cant of her head. He was a tall man, dark and broad shouldered. Capable-looking with forest green eyes that stood out in amongst the darkness. "You called?" she spoke softly, tone indecipherable as she eyed him.

He was lucky to not have to wait long. A voice called out to him grabbing his attention, although it would take him a moment to make out the woman's silhouette. As dark as the night sky, if not darker with bright blue eyes that glowed like stones. Flashing one of his grins, Tobias gave a short bow, I did. Do you live around here Ma'am?

If the woman's pack was nearby it would be good to note. Kaistleoki should be introducing themselves to their neighbors after all. I apologize if these woods belong to you, I didn't smell a border but figured it would be better to call than turn tail and possibly leave a bad impression for the rest of my folk.
