She waits quietly, sapphire eyes flecked with violet, watching the young boy carefully. She noticed how he moved to touch her, but hesitated and stopped himself. For a moment her obsidian crown titled slightly in a puzzled manner wondering why he seemed to resist touch. It was natural for those to touch others, it was a sign of trust, but also familiarity. She wasn’t quite sure what she could do to show Lonhro that he was a like her own children. The included him, acknowledged him every time he made his presence known, and yet she could not tell if he approved of her or not. She nods to his words, showing approval, glad to know he understood. As he provides her a Cheshire grin with a proposal to share secrets she gives him a cur nod, a sly smile of her own making in appearance on her grey maw. She speaks softly telling him a secret she was told by the great white wolf of Diveen to never utter, and yet, today seemed so very pretty to share such an age old secret that many within Moladion did not know.
“I have a secret. Do you see the claw marks on this side of my face...it came from a mountain lion, the same mountain lion I helped kill when I protected the great Heyel.”
Even with his death he was known, Heyel, the former Angel King. It was not difficult to meet a wolf anywhere within these lands that was not somehow related to him. He was powerful even in Death and that was something that should be admired. Now that she had provided the young pup a secret of her own her dark ears flicked back and forth, waiting patiently for the boy to tell her what secret he had. As he began to divulge just what he knew she stared at him for a moment, as concern began to appear in her eyes, and yet her mauled face remained unreadable. The one thing that Tick Tock wanted to do for her pack was to protect them from any and all potential threats. They had a treaty with the Angel pack and she hoped to one day enter an alliance with them. Having a rather large pack to be beside promised her that her pack would always be protected. That one wolf could attempt to tear her plan, to keep her pack always safe, apart made the Monster tuck away this piece information and would use it when necessary. A small smile appeared upon her black and grey lips, a spark of pride for the boy, proud that he would come to her and provide her this very important piece of information.
“It is very good of you to tell me this secret Lonhro. We have a treaty with the Angel pack and we do not want to give them any reason to doubt our trust should we one day wish to be allies. I am proud that you told me this, Lonhro, thank you.”
