For Anatoily at the borders. 300+
It was a peaceful day and his recent hunt excursion had been a success. He had even met a wolf from one of the neighboring packs and they had worked together. She, too, had been a hunter and it had been interesting to work together with the woman. He hoped that the other wolves that lived in this area were as pleasant as Ghita had been. AniWaya had had trouble in the past with quarrelsome neighbors and he hoped that such problems could be avoided in these new lands. Dawali had given no hint that they had had problems with any of the other groups around here and that gave Nayati hope. Perhaps a place where they could live as they wished in peace had finally been found. Each day that passed gave him reassurance that he had made the right decision in following after Asha to help this extension of their tribe. He still had felt guilt at leaving his parents behind, being their eldest son, but his younger siblings were now old enough to help them and he had imparted to them the importance of being good helpers to their parents. Family was the cornerstone of everything and he would not have been able to leave if he had feared for their future.
The blue-painted male walked casually along the edges of the tribe's lands, looking over them and learning each hill and valley by heart. These were good lands that they had picked, though he would expect no less of Ayegali and Dawali. The biggest adjustment he had to make however was the fact that this tribe was so much smaller than the main tribe. Not only that, but the Amaras and himself were the only original members in these lands. It made him feel somewhat alone, but as long as they all stuck together they would endure. Onawa padded gracefully beside him, her large eyes roving the lands as his did. "What do you think of this place?" One of her rounded ears flicked in acknowledgment of his question, though she took a few moments to respond. It will serve. A small grin crossed his face. He couldn't imagine being without her as his Guide. Nayati felt sorry for any who were not gifted with the privilege of a Spirit Guide. How lonely and narrow their lives must be. He knew his own mind would be much narrower without her guidance and influence.
