She gave Conri a soft smile as he spoke of his fears and selfdoubts. The quiet boy she once knew seemed so helpless and lost, like he didn't fit right in his own skin. Her eyes softened as his words seemed to flow so freely. Iskata shook her head sadly as her blue eyes gazed at the alpha of Twilight Vale. "Conri.. don't give up before you even try... It might be harder for you than others but that will make you better than the rest in the end.. Just be patient in everything you do and with time... and practice... you'll be everything and more she's ever wanted." She leaned forward and nuzzled her muzzle against Conri's cheek softly trying to give the young man some encouragement. She knew life would never exactly be easy for him but she could see in his devotion to Naniko that if he took the whole of his life in the same manner he'd have nothing to worry about.
She leaned back and watched Conri, wondering why he seemed so downcast on himself. She could understand for the most part, but he had a whole pack that looked up to him. She'd never had anyone who ever really had looked up to her like that except her children, and that was understandable, but to have everyone look up to you for guidance and leadership, that was something she figured she'd never experience. Settling back on her haunches she stared up at the young alpha and smiled. "That part's simple Conri, just learn to use your weaknesses. Practice sparring and fighting in all forms. Like everything else in time and with patience you'll fit better in your skin... and if you let others think what they see is what they get.. they'll never know what hit them." Her eyes danced as she spoke, she'd known a wolf once long ago who'd lived with only three limbs and they'd still had a full life. "Just be yourself Conri, it's all she can ask of you.." she already knew no matter what he did he'd always be perfect in her daughter's eyes.. he just had to convince himself.
