A long time ago, when I lived far from Moladion, in the middle of one war against a bigger pack, my pack had left me behind and ran away. I had to stay and fight another five wolves to keep them back and give my pack a chance to survive. They captured me. My head lowered as I remembered that day. The huge and permanent scar on my left leg a constant reminder of how I have been loyal to my pack for months. I've been through many things. My entire family was my pack. My father had given his life for the pack when I was still a pup and my mother... Well I don't remember much about her. I have a Vague memory of a big wolfess with the same pelt as mine, the same color, length. A beautiful wolfess, very kind and loving, but... I... Don't remember much else.
I nodded in agreement to her words as she spoke. There was a small silence between us, before I asked her about her parents and everything. I could see she was sad and I didn't mean to make her feel that way, so I apologized. She told me then, that it was okay. But I didn't like her choice of words. It happens to everyone?
- ... It doesn't
I spoke. My words were heavy. No, it doesn't happen to everyone at any point. I lost my family a long time ago and I don't consider this normal at all. Getting over their loss hadn't made the pain I feel any better. But I rather prefer to feel this sadness than forget what they meant to me. I closed my eyes for a second and took a deep breath. Well I... I don't know this girl. I don't know her to judge her words, I just chose to ignore and looked back at her as she finished stretching herself. I invited her to join our pack.
Well I don't see why not. She doesn't seem to be a mean wolfess. Well, it was quite the way from here to Diveen, I guess I could know more about her in the way.
- ... It's okay, really.
I waved my tail once more, reassuring my words and in one smooth move, I raised to my paws and turned my frame.
- It's a long way, it's better if we start walking right now. Come!
I invited her and waited for her before starting to walk towards Diveen.
