Terah contemplated the pale woman's words, her hardened face betraying little of her thought processes. She had been quite capable of being cryptic in her homeland, and now that seemed to come at her advantage. The other canine seemed to take offense, seemed to be aggressive, even. Terah took this into consideration, too. The ruddy woman remained silent a long moment after the pale woman with the spiked lock of purple hair was quiet, even though her threats. Terah did not return the woman's gaze, but instead looked past her, in the direction she'd been headed.
And what if she wanted to die? Surely it was better to be torn to pieces than starve as a loner, her children aborted in her belly. Surely it was several worlds better than choosing a life of sin with one of those southern packs. If this one was to kill her, perhaps it was for the best -- it might be the path of least pain, and it just might clear the path into the heavens. But if she chose her death in such a fashion, even silently, would such a choice not condemn her? She contemplated this, her travel-addled mind moving slowly around the subject.
Would you tell me anything of that group? Of those groups? Help a lost traveller, don't spit upon her, the woman pleaded. Sinner or not, perhaps this woman did have some sense of morality and Terah could appeal to it.
