Zelda was the most trusting so far of the wolves Avery had met who knew she came from Iromar. She knew Taviora didn't have a good history with Iromar, what with Blackthorne kidnapping pups and holding them hostage from this pack. And yet, here Zelda was, offering an olive branch. Avery was so grateful for the chance to prove that she was a good ally to have. She might not have the numbers yet of active members like some of the other packs in Moladian but Iromar was slowly growing. More and more pack members were coming forward, wanting to do their part. It would only be a matter of time before she had ranked wolves and those she could trust within her own borders. Allies were very important during this time when she didn't have as much backup. Plus the other alphas would have intel on Iromar's past, having been here before Avery herself came back.

It was vital to gain their trust, no matter what it took. She could see Zelda was dubious of her own nephews but Avery was sure her own children would be wild in their own way as well. As long as they weren't hurting anyone, there was no harm done. She only saw pranks and antics as living life. Being a child was important, too. Only if they got to live freely as children would they be able to mature into wise adults and elders, in her opinion. Zelda let her know that her family is always willing to give chances. She smiled and nodded, gratitude flashing in her eyes. But then Zelda said she had information she felt Avery should know. Avery's brow lifted and her head tilted a little, curious of what Zelda had to offer. She said that one of her thieves got a wolf leaving Iromar and they told her to look out for Blackthorne's followers.

When she said the name Zharko, Avery's eyes widened for a minute. A wolf named Zharko had just returned to Iromar with two girls in tow. Zelda called him Blackthorne's second in command. She had no idea he was that highly ranked before. He looked so submissive, ashamed even. Was it all an act to get her guard down or did he truly feel bad about the things he'd done? "A wolf named Zharko has returned to Iromar. He has the daughters of Pine with him. Apparently he was appointed to guard them with Blackthorne but since then, he's been protecting them. I'll keep an eye on him." She assured Zelda. She figured the alpha would want to know that Zharko is accounted for, at least. Then she named off two females, one named Eve and the other, Gazmala. Avery hadn't met anyone by the description of Eve yet but the description of Gazmala fit right with the female whose name she hadn't gotten yet.

The one who had an imprint now, Dirge. Avery nodded. "Thank you. I didn't know her name but now I do. Gazmala has returned to Iromar, as well. She brought her daughter with her, too." Again, letting Zelda know where she was so she could feel more safe. Avery shook her head when Zelda apologized for not telling her at the feast. "It's fine. There was plenty of other stuff calling for your attention." Zelda asked if it was enough for her to go on and Avery smiled, her eyes twinkling. "More than enough. Thank you. I have two expecting mothers in Iromar this spring, myself included. If someone is available to make a trip, I would be very grateful." She felt bad asking without feeling like she'd done anything in return yet but she planned on doing whatever it took to show Zelda Iromar was a worthy ally.
