Xeris' paws delicately punctured the layer of snow that coated the grass, leaving small pockmarks in its surface with every step she took. The echoing tiny footsteps of the three children behind her kept her confident that they were still there. Suddenly, a howl pierced the stillness; it was coming from the nearby border. "Mama, who's there?" Xion piped up from behind her mother. "It must be a newcomer," Xeris replied. She prepared to walk over toward the sound, but realized that if this unknown wolf was dangerous, her pups would not be safe. "Stay here for a moment. Don't leave this spot," she said, turning to them. With that she trotted off toward the sound of the howl.


It wasn't long before she reached the borders, and there indeed was an unfamiliar dark-furred wolfess there. Approaching cautiously, Xeris greeted the stranger. "Hello there," she said. "This is Phoenix Valley territory. Is there something you need?" It was then that the white wolfess realized that this stranger had a pack scent upon her fur; Crimson Dreams. Xeris had only been to Crimson Dreams once, but she did recall being there. Perhaps she was looking for someone in the pack, maybe Jefferson or Geneva or even Naniko. For now, Xeris stood and patiently waited for the woman's response.
