The time again came for Elowen to venture away from her solitude and seek company. After her interaction with the black male, she spent a few days sheltering from the bitter winds before venturing over to the next section of the crater. Here, there was a lake that would likely be placid in the summertime; for the moment it was glazed over in a sheet of ice.

As she moved, a chill ran down her spine despite her thickened winter coat. Her homeland was cold in the winter, but not this cold, and it would take a few of the harsher seasons to stimulate her pelt to adequately grow. As a result, she quickly trotted to keep her muscles warm as she traveled past the lakeshore and further into a sandier area that was not as snowy as elsewhere.

She saw a white form basking in the sun, and a cream and white figure further beyond. She stopped, testing the air with her nose. The closer, stronger scent was of a female, and the weaker was male. Neither seemed too threatening, so she continued her approach, being sure not to take the other she-wolf by surprise. Letting out a soft yip of greeting before settling into a sitting position, her face lifted to the warming sun in pleasure.
