From Spirane, the fires had been easy to watch; pillars of dark smoke had risen in the summer sky by the borders of Iromar. Malina wondered how their new alpha might find such a thing - it was a crass welcoming if anything, a thougth that made her smirk from the sheer absurdity of it. In any case, she liked to think that many of the wolves were accustomed enough to life within Moladion to survive the fires; if they fled towards the coast, they would be safe enough - or the crags, so long as they stayed away from the outskirts where the rocks would be scorching. As for her own children out there? She hadn't a worry for them; Israfel knew the place well and he'd come to Spirane the moment true danger presented itself. After all, he and his sister were smart - Moonfeather would likely have sent her companion out by now to scout for him, no doubt.

She did worry about Mirage though - a quiet type of worry though. The child had to blossom in her own time and Malina's hovering would surely push her back into the retreats of her own mind. So, she had been patient on the outskirts of Spirane, just a little hopeful that she would come. So, she had laid atop one of the outcrops over the mountain path; like a hawk, she watched over the land around her, all too reminiscent of Heyel in those moments. Of course, she refused to feel like him though. Even in her age, she refused to acknowledge any hint of an ache or a blur in her vision. Of all things, she'd never allow herself to be ended like that.

Vafer. Her ear twitched. Her nostrils flared curiously, almost certain it had been a trick of her mind and yet, she felt her fur stand on end. Whatever it was, it was no trick; she could practically feel the girl's energy in the wind and that made her practically tumble from her position.

She felt a sense of urgency as she quickly sniffed out Mirage's scent in the wind and with a flick of her tail, she had taken off towards her. This time, she had no reservations when it came to her approach; she moved precisely and blatantly, her head low as she met the girl's eyes and in that moment, she knew something had happened. It made her brows furrow ever so slightly and yet, she did her best to ignore the obvious confliction that plagued her child. "I am glad to see you safe." For now, as she settled into place and sat herself before her, it was all that she could offer with the smallest hint of a grin.
