CUTIE CLAUDIUS REPORTING FOR DUTY
[html]

[/html]Claudius couldn't believe it: there was another someone (or other) at the borders howling for him. Even though he had already welcomed one woman from the Great Tribe to this AniWaya and explained of Maska's crimes, he couldn't believe that he was still allowed to do this. It gave him a small glimmer of hope and pride, and although he liked this feeling, he was still so hesitant to accept it.[/html]
However, it didn't seem like there was anyone else to do this duty. He hadn't heard a howl from any other of the tribe members, so Claudius had figured it would be best to investigate this himself. He responded to the howl with one of his own, acknowledging it and indicating that he would be there soon. Although this sort of linguistic complexity was impossible with a howl, he knew that responding to a greeting howl from the borders sent this sort of message.
He was fortunate this time: he had been quite close to the borders scouting out the area, so even though he was in his much slower two-legged form, it only took him fifteen minutes to reach the newcomers.
Before emerging from the wooded tribelands, he took a moment to catch his breath. Once he felt prepared, he stepped out and barked a greeting.
"He-he-ello," he stated calmly. "Do y-you... nee-ee-d s-o-omething?"[html]
