She knew that one of the only packs that Inferni did not know much about was one of the largest packs, and potentially dangerous - she had heard whispers and rumors that it was a knightly pack, a warrior pack, but she could not be sure. Before she had left for the area, she had disguised her scent as best as she could - first by taking a thorough bath in the ocean, and then disguising it further by rolling in the dead leaves and muddy areas of the neutral territories as much as she could without dirtying her fur beyond recognition. She had cleaned it since - but now, the Inferni scent was so faint that it was more likely that she was a loner passing through Inferni rather than a member herself.

She wasn't quite by the borders of the mysterious Casa di Cavalieri, but a little ways away, thinking of how to get information properly from the pack - perhaps she could pretend to be a potential joiner, innocent and vain, as her normal facade was. Her snake was still with her, but hidden within her hair, so that only the tip of his tail could be seen. Even then, it could be mistaken for almost anything - the warm weather was receding faster than she would like, and so her pet wouldn't come out of her warm hair any time soon.

She caught a scent on the wind, suddenly - a member of the nearby pack. It was a strange scent - almost domestic, with the scents of stones and horses and other wolves. She turned to the scents and sounds, seeing a dark and light colored man, who was quite tall - much taller than herself. The black jackal hybird looked up at him, taking only a split second to spark innocence in her eyes - she was a prospective joiner.

"Oh, hello!" she said with a smile, stroking her hair absentmindedly. "Are you from one of the packs nearby?" she asked. Her voice was slightly higher than normal, giving off every impression that she was vain and perhaps a bit dumb. Her snake remained hidden in her hair, not moving or otherwise being noticeable.

Sepirah noticed that he seemed a bit of a nervous sort - although she was the one close to his pack, he still submitted slightly to her, his ears folding back slightly and his posture submissive. Nevertheless, he still answered her question - he was from the mysterious pack. Good, then.

And it seemed that the rumors were true, as well - it was a pack of fighters, warriors, and knights. Protectors, guardians. Protecting others - she wasn't sure what to make of that idea. It seemed a bit overbearing - but then again, she did not know the full story, not yet.

"That sounds so wonderful," she said brightly. "What is it like?" she asked, her curiousity showing through, although it still fit in with her current demeanor. For the most part, canines, she gathered, enjoyed talking about their packs, about what they are like and what they do - she just hoped that this timid canine was like that as well.

She nodded enthusiastically as he spoke - it seemed like the kind of place that most members of Inferni may not enjoy. In the coyote clan, the ranks were less strict, the submission and dominance lesser, and the concept of a tight-knight, close group was looser. Exclusive, yes. Willing to help the pack, yes. But it was very different from the way that this man described his own pack - Inferni was more secluded; it had to be, what with its coyote heritage. But a pack of mostly wolves, self-proclaimed 'warriors' who helped others - although both groups contained mostly warriors, it was very different indeed.

"You all sound very close together," she said, intrigued by the dynamics. "I'd imagine that it takes quite a warrior to lead so many like you." She imagined who might lead this pack of knights and fighters - to be able to lead and control them, whoever it was must be strong. She idly wondered if there were many wolves in the pack, or if it was simply a mix of canines like so many other hybrid packs were.

The name he uttered was foreign to her, but she still kept it logged away in her mind, in case any else could provide some insight to who this Jazper man was. She envisioned him as a large, and powerful, perhaps, if he ran the entire pack of warriors and strong fighters as this man described. And not just one leader, but two - similar to how Myrika and Vesper both ran Inferni, but Myrika, like Jazper, was the primary leader.

The question of what kind of canines resided in the pack struck her again, and she quickly formulated a question - "Would someone like me be allowed to join?" she asked, stroking her hair once again. "I know that some packs don't like coyotes..." New Dawn mostly came to mind - she knew that they did not allow any without wolf heritage to join their ranks, and as far as she was concerned, that was just fine for them.

Aly. Another name to remember - she assumed that this 'Aly' that the man spoke of was the secondary leader of Casa di Cavalieri. Her ears had relaxed some, her tail wagging slowly, and her voice had lowered a pitch, but only slightly - the conversation was going quite well. A pack of hybrids - it really was not all that uncommon, she gathered, although it did not used to be that way she was sure. Sepirah stepped to her left, feeling a bit more energetic than she had earlier int he conversation - she supposed that she may leave soon, but only after a few more questions for the male.

"That's good to hear," she said in response. "Some only allow a certain type of canine.. New Dawn.. Inferni.. it makes for hostile standings with other packs and clans, I think." She trailed off, leading into yet another question - "Surely a pack of knights and warriors has interesting relations with other packs..?" The guise of a curious joiner was still being upheld, but she wondered if he would soon become suspicious of the numerous questions - to counter this possibility, she knit her brows together, causing her visage to look quite curious indeed.

Hadley paused, and she cocked her head - had she said something wrong? Thinking back to her question, she noticed that it could be misconstrued as something else, as a testing of who the pack was enemies with and who they were friendly with. Determined to keep the facade of a friendly, curious joiner going, she raised her brows in faux surprise.

"Oh!" she exclaimed softly. "I was just wondering if the pack was friendly with the other packs," she finished with a small, light laugh. It was the sort of question that a prospective joiner would ask - someone who wished to join would want to be wary of which packs were alright to approach, and which packs were to be wary of in case they held hostile relations. She minded her snake, still wrapped, hidden, in her hair, but her serpentine friend did not move or make a sound - it was still undetectable, and she hoped that that was the way it stayed.

Sepirah nodded slowly - she knew of Cercatori d'Arte, and had almost joined them.. twice. Her place was now in Inferni, however, and all thoughts of leaving them was gone. She would never truly belong, would never be accepted, if she continued to leave and come again like a leaf blowing in the wind - so it was where she would stay, and would help by doing all she could to assist the coyote clan that she now would forever call home.

The other packs she was less familiar with, but knew about them. New Dawn particularly.. she didn't care for the all-wolf pack, who seemed to hate coyotes with the same prejudice that Inferni hated wolves and dogs with. She did not show any negative emotion, however, and decided that the information gleamed was enough for one day.

"Well, thank you very much for telling me about your pack," she said earnestly. "It sounds like a wonderful place to live. Maybe I'll see you again some time!" It wasn't quite a promise of a joiner considering the offer of a place to live, but it could certainly be seen as one. Her snake was docile, as it always had been during the conversation - she was glad for it, at least, as it did not give away anything that would be considered.. 'amiss'. She began to turn away, waving shortly to Hadley in a friendly and peppy manner, as an innocent loner would, before heading back to Inferni.
