Ophiuchus was not feeling this weather. Sure, his fur was more than thick enough to withstand the cold. But with its general softness, the snow was sticking even more this year. He had remained hunkered down through the brunt of the giant gales of wind. Blizzards again. This made him worry about everyone, especially his friends and imprint. Alyse was still out there somewhere, he could feel it. Ophi only hoped that she wasn't trapped by the storm that had come through. He was less worried about young Niyol and Mochi. They were likely cooped up causing trouble for their parents.

So, he finally decided to emerge into the pack. All the trees were snow covered and everything was so pristine. Thankfully, he was large enough to trudge through the deep snow fairly easily. It was still soft enough to make paths through so no one else might get stuck. Of course, the snow decided to cling to his thick and wispy coat in the process.

The gray coated wolf groaned softly to himself before catching a glimpse of someone else out in the snow. His ears perked up. There was immediate recognition of the forest goddess. Zelda was definitely something special, though he never really had a proper opportunity to talk to her by himself. His tail waved at the prospect, though what kind of conversation could he possibly engage in with their Alpha? Maybe he could get some real direction on being more useful to the pack. Perfect!

Ophi trudged on towards her with a wave of his tail. "Miss Zelda!" he called out excitedly. Granted, he was not quite as excited as he might have been in any other season with all the snow. But what now? He found himself at a complete loss of words as he closed the gap between them. In his mind, he knew what he could ask her, but it all just seemed to brain dump once he was there.
