Stone Circle How? What? Why?

@Greyback

Arlette had kept a low profile ever since that scary meeting where vespera had been exiled. The female had been curious from the start why Greyback would do such a thing. First there had been her own fear, which made her avoid him really. But then, curiosity set in. Her father had been acting strange when she was around Kaito that time, and he had been so angry towards Vespera. She wondered why as she only knew him as the calm and wise man.

Perhaps if she convinced Greyback that Kaito wasn't so bad he would be so strict with him. Though, she would want to see his mood before tackling that. Perhaps her dad just needed a talk about why he was so angry or upset. Maybe if she showed him she was willing to listen he would feel better. She went to check her parents den to see if he was there. If not, she would look at his other usual spots to see if he was there.

Greyback had been down by the stream, flipping rocks over with his paws in search for any critters to eat. So far he had no luck, and with a final turn of a stone he began to realize that perhaps they didn't inhabit this stream anymore. Snuffling, he searched over the water one final time before grumbling. He would either have to search the other stream on the far side of the territory or give up and head to the caches.

Turning around he was shocked to find Arlette, her white fur standing out between the trees. She had been avoiding him since the meeting, not that he blamed her. It seemed all the wolves were quite keen on keeping their distance from the man. "Oh- Arlette. What can I help you with?" he questioned, turning his head and keeping his voice low to seem more welcoming. He didn't want to scare her off, not when she was finally opening back up to him.

Arlette didn't find him around the den. So she continued. Eventually she found him at the stream. She heard low grumbles and she wondered if she caught him in a bad mood. She hoped not. It was scary enough to approach him so directly. But if she wanted to be a good therapist then she had to do this. She watched as he turned, his greeting seemed to be kinder. Arlette's ears flopped back submissively nevertheless.

"Well uhh," she stated and looked at her paws. She inhaled and then batter her curious red eyes at him. Because that was what won it in the end. Her curiosity. "Why have you been so angry lately?," she asked and looked genuinely worried. Arlette licked her lips, she didn't want him to think she wasn't... submissive. She still saw him in a higher rank as that she was. "The others... Some wolves... They think they will be exiled too,' she then paused briefly. "I thought so too," she added in a whisper. This whole ordeal hadn't been good for the pack. Most wolves were stressed it seemed.
