He mentioned Maia and his directions were to Brecheliant. "Ah yes, I like Maia very much. And her children are sweet," she added, fondly recalling the afternoon she spent shepherding them at the big hunt. 

"Their father Eljay used to reside with my pack, Redhawk Caldera. Or.. my former pack." Pain flickered across Ruenna's features. That was still a fresh wound. 

Eljay departed the pack ultimately because Towhee would not let him start his family in the Caldera. Now the Caldera was gone, because they'd had too few members to sustain themselves. Eljay's family likely would have bolstered their ranks and saved the pack, if only Towhee had allowed them to stay. How was that for irony? 

These were blunders that Ruenna had hoped to correct during her time as Sovereign, but her influence came too late unfortunately. 

Coriander made a very thoughtful offer, but Ruenna declined it with a shake of her head. "That's very kind of you Coriander, but I wouldn't even know for sure where to start looking for Moonglow. And I don't travel as well as I used to." Given how painful it was for her to move, her scouting days spent wandering and searching were over. If she was going to travel, she needed to know her destination, and she needed to be certain there would be food and a safe place to rest when she got there. She had to plan everything more carefully these days, and Moonglow's disappearance was definitely not part of the plan.
