Ravensblood Forest Will You Hold the Line?

It seemed that today would be the day that Ira decided to give their neighbors a little visit, the same pack of which that the female who had come to their borders weeks prior requesting to speak with their leaders in the chance of forming some kind of alliance. Hieronymous was simply a knight before with no real pull in the pack, but now, he was a Constable. With enough respect bought with his time in Kaistleoki that Ira had asked for his company during the trip.

They didn't know much about this pack, who they were, other than what was told to Ira by another supposed leader. Expect the worst, hope for the best, he thought to himself. At least he was here by Ira's side should things turn for the worst, but he wasn't hoping for a fight. 

As they walked, he remained close enough to Ira so that she may take the lead. They sought a pack, one of which he didn't want to even accidentally cross their borders, surely that alone would be enough to set them off and so, he let his peripherals keep an eye on the roan woman while he on the other than would make use of this trip by memorizing trails and landscapes so he may travel further beyond the river's borders safely. Now that he had more responsibilities in the pack, he shouldn't be out getting lost again. 

Once Ira stopped, he imagined this would be the outskirts of the new pack's territory. His heart raced, anticipating a group of them (not being able to smell how many were actually present after all). Keeping a calm facade as his eyes remained focused on the movement around them, Ira would be their nose while he, their eyes.
