It would seem that luck had been with Rem in crossing paths with this AniWayan male, as the wolf picked up on his cues. The horse had come to expect being underestimated. Few credited him with the intelligence he held. To so many wolves he was just another dumb prey animal and they could see beyond his species and rather mute tongue. His life had been spent amongst wolves and had learned much from their ways, and this had diversified the stallion from the majority of his own kind.

The pale eyed wolf was perceptive in seeing Rem’s true objective, but was somewhat wrong in thinking the horse had been sent for he had come solely of his own accord. His charge was not capable of traveling and investigating on her own. Besides she was held to the social laws of the wolves and while Rem payed little mind to the scent marking’s that made up the border, to Anann they would have been an impenetrable wall, at least not without consequence. Consequences that would be far too steep in these times of war.

Eagerly Rem absorbed the information that was offered. Never faltering as the wolf edged closer. Not every word was recognized by the horse, but enough. It was a comfort to know that he may indeed find their location without having to brave the village he hoped to avoid. A single strange horse roaming the lands surely wouldn’t attract too much attention, but someone would find it odd for an unknown horse to be roaming the village of so many strange canines. The horse gave a dip of respect of his head in thanks and moved close enough that the wolf might offer a hand in friendship for the horse to sniff before he would turn and trot away. He had gained what he could from this chance encounter and now it was time he made use of it.
