How quickly things could change! It was a lesson she would need to learn sooner rather than later and yet it was still a shock. Not long ago, it had been all fun and games and yet now... now she knew a harsher reality. Even the little world was not some grand utopia and that made a part of her sad in knowing that. Still, she had quickly found comfort in the fact that it was him teaching her all this. After all, he had a certain kindness about him that put her at ease, and the knowledge she had found did not seem so terrifying with him so close.

When he spoke, she could not help but turn to him with those big, wistful eyes, staring up and nodding along with his words. Still, she could not shake the fear that she had potential to be so merciless - did she really need to be? With a glance back to the spider, she had to think for a moment: at least it had been quick, right? The bug no longer moved nor struggle and the spider had not hounded it for hours on hours. It was over before she knew and likely before it knew it too.

She mulled over his words and her own thoughts, her lips taut in thought. When he pulled her in close, she instinctively nuzzled in, sighing out in relief as she pressed into his warmth. Comfortable, she thought, unlike these little truths.

"What else is there to being a wolf? All I wanted to do was play and explore..."

Her voice was hushed as she buried her nose into the thick fur of his ruff, once more gazing up at him with those pale eyes. What else did he know? To think she had come here expecting so little and yet now she had found herself a teacher - and a friend! Still, she wanted to know more. Her questions seemed ceaseless as her little mind buzzed. She had to know...

"Have you done it before? Done that?"
