The shock of the sudden string of events had long since settled in. He had come to realize that they had only made it out of the lands alive by the skin of their teeth. Also, he had come to understand that it was possible not everyone made it out alive. Was he a coward for not searching better? Did he not run the lands long enough in attempt to warn everyone that he could? All of those things tugged at his mind, they likely would for a long time to come, but despite all of that Conri knew that they couldn't dwell on it. There were survivors, even if there were only a few with them, and that was what mattered now. Her voice broke the quiet of the night and he continued to round the lake until he spotted her, shifting to move in her direction. He seated himself to her left side when he arrived so that he could wrap his arm carefully around her, to hold her close to him. If she only knew the fear that had built up inside him during the time that she was away from him in the fire. "Twilight Vale." He spoke quietly, eyes cast out across the lake in front of them. "I think it would fit nicely." She might not have understood it at that moment, but chances were that she did. "I think we should rebuild here Naniko. We should start our own pack." He turned his head then, bringing jade eyes to settle on her face. "It would do more good for us to stay in one place instead of wandering. Injuries and the pups, they'll only get worse if we keep on moving." It made sense, at least in his mind. "We should invite the rest of them to stay here with us, to help up rebuild and move on." Even if moving on was a hard concept to accept. |
