The young male already felt calmer now that he was awake and out in the cool night air. The full moon was all the light that his light green orbs needed to light his path. The lands were still unfamiliar to him, but he would be able to follow his own scent back home if he got lost. He still wasn’t sure how he felt without Halina. He missed her, but at the same time he was used to being on his own. His family had been killed, and he had been lucky to make it out alive, and since then had been on his own. He could have turned the female’s offer down and continued to be on his own, but for some reason he had agreed to train under her. And Lupin had grown accustomed to her company. But then Halina had left, and he was alone once more. He preferred to be in smaller groups, so he had left the pack that he had been in. The scarred male had spent some time on his own, but he grew lonely. Even though he had wanted to be alone, he had grown used to living in a pack. Even if he didn’t spend time with his packmates, it was a comfort to live within a territory of a pack. And so Lupin had found Milo and had been accepted into her pack.
The young male let these thoughts stir through his mind as he wandered aimlessly about the new lands, until he found himself approaching water. The lake was no longer a lake, but some sort of ocean that he couldn’t see to the other side of. His stilts walked into the water, feeling an intense chill from it. It was colder than the lake used to be. He didn’t spend much time in the waves, but padded back out onto the rocky shore. His gaze turned back to the sky, starring at the stars and the moon that had always been his company. No matter where he was, the moon was there to be a friend to him. His audettes picked up on the sound of another approaching varg, but he didn’t move from his position, taking in the view above him. His scarred face only turned when vocals reached his ears. "It's not common for such young brutes to be out in the middle of the night."
For a few moments Lupin was silent. He was not the most talkative varg, and there had been no direction question in the female’s words, only a statement. And he knew it to be true. Most would sleep at nighttime and be active during the day. But he was more comfortable at night. The male readjusted his position, shifting from paw to paw, unsure of what it was she wanted him to say. ”Umm…I suppose so.” He knew he sounded awkward, but he didn’t know what else to say. ”Why are you out at night then?” His tone was neutral, not accusing or demanding, more curious than anything.
