The wolf had found himself outside of Taviora today. Life had never been better, in his opinion. There was nothing quite like being in a pack, especially after spending such a long time alone. Nord felt like he belonged somewhere again, and he sure was glad that he had gotten up the courage to join the pack. Coza had been more than welcoming and the dual-toned brute felt at home in Taviora already. A healer, he had never expected to use the several skills he had picked up to help others, but he was liking the role more and more with each passing day. Nord liked curing the ailments of others when he could, after so long spent ailed himself.
His stutter had all but disappeared in casual conversation, and only was a real problem when he was frightened. Instead of walking slouched over with his eyes downcast he tried to straighten up, and look around at the world as he walked through it. Things seemed to be really looking up for the first time, and Nord felt really happy! So happy that he had come to the neutral lands to try and see if he could find somebody interesting to talk to. He hadn't gotten to know many of his pack members, but it was still a little bit intimidating to socialize with so many. He was more confident but he certainly still wasn't very extroverted.
His tail gave a small flick as he clambered over the rocks at the crags, his lanky body making it's way over the stones quite slowly. He wasn't really accustomed to this type of terrain, and his body was built more for distance and endurance rather than climbing. Nord jumped across a small gap, his dark paws landing softly on the other side. The wolf's ocean blue eyes glanced around, catching sight of a larger wolf crawling out from a small cavern in the rocks.
She hadn't noticed him yet, her blood red eyes staring at what seemed to be nothing. Nord tilted his head and jumped down from his small perch, trotting over to her. He stopped at a respectful distance, his head cocked curiously. "Hello!" he said, his big blue eyes wide and imploring. "It's a nice night, isn't it?" His attempt at casual conversation was a tad pathetic, but at least he was trying. |
