As far as she knew, she was alone in these lands. Siobhan knew the names of her family members--she'd been taught them by her mother when she had been very young--but she had never asked the others here if they knew any of them. She was from such a far away place that she didn't think that any of them could have come from this area.
It wasn't hard to be bigger than Sio. The only one that she knew who was smaller than her was Zana, the girl she had to live with. But she thought that there was something wrong with Zana...with the way she was growing. Maybe she would always be really small. Siobhan was an adult, now, but she too was rather petite. Even for a coyote. She hadn't been fed enough as a pup, enough to give her the boost that she would need as she grew into adulthood.
The girl looked around for a few moments before she finally saw the other against the foresty background. She held onto her basket nervously, moving from foot to foot. Should she come closer? Or would the wolf approach her? Adelaida had told her that wolves and coyotes weren't supposed to get along, but so far she hadn't found a wolf that she hadn't liked. Would this be the one wolf that would try and fight her? She wondered about that each time that she met a new wolf.
"Ah...hello. Siobhan? Siobhan is wearing a dress. She found it...in the city. It is red like her eyes. You, wolf...you has been to the city?"
