She nodded as he began to speak of the other packs - the name X'yrin rung a bell, although Skye could not for the life of her place where she had heard it before. She thought hard about it before she recalled - Jace had told her about her. She was the former leader of Ichika no Ho-en, who Jace seemed to dislike greatly. She wondered how she could be a leader of another pack so quickly after her first one had dissipated, as if the first pack was nothing, but she held judgement for now, waiting to listen to what else Vasiliy had gathered of the other packs.
Whatever she may think of the leader of this 'nomad' pack, she could not help but give a grin of appreciation in what they traded with them. Moose antlers, bear pelts, carving rocks - all of these could prove to be very valuable to the pack if used correctly.
And a couple of loners - those could always be guaranteed when doing a trade journey. She nodded thoughtfully at Vasiliy's thoughts. "Perhaps," she said. "It's strange - there are so many new packs emerging recently. But then again, that just makes us all the more useful," she said with a mischievous spark in her eye; a tell-tale sign of the trader within her. "Our position is perfect - we can easily reach the northern packs on the boat, and the southern packs, we can simply walk to."
She then thought more about the gray man she was speaking to - she knew that he came from a family of sailors, but what did they do? Curiousity took hold of her - "Did your family trade as well?" she asked lightly. If it was a sensitive subject, however, she would stop probing.
