The newcomer was silent as the golden yearling gave the overview of the territory. It would probably take more than a day to explore the territory in depth, and Tynan would have plenty of time to do that if he decided to settle down here permanently. Conor was careful to have no expectations rise as of yet for Dahlia’s newest member. Even if it sounded preferable today did not mean that Tynan would be able to find this to be the home he had searched for. There were many wolves stopping by only to disappear shortly after. While it was Conor’s wish that the earthen coated man would settle and find a life worth living here in the pack, he accepted that it was a good possibility this was yet another wolf passing through. He was welcome either way and the pack would just have to deal with things as they came.
He thought of his half-sister, Colibri, wondered how she was doing in Crimson Dreams. She and Anu. He made a mental note to visit them in the close future before he turned to answer the fresh subordinate’s question. ”Dahlia’s member count was almost thirty members a year ago,” he replied quietly, unable to recall the exact number because he had been so small back then. ”Today we are approximately twelve members. We just went through a war with a nearby coyote clan and both sides lost many members,” his comfortable voice dropped when he spoke of the war. Haku had ruined so many lives by starting that last war. He deserved nothing but death, truly. ”The rest of the packs are relatively peaceful as well, so that issue has never risen.” Was it common for the wolf packs to compete with each other for territory and hunting grounds where Tynan came from?
”It that something that would have been likely to happen where you come from, Tynan?” the young leader shot in with sincere curiosity. Moments later another question hit Conor’s golden hued ears and he smiled warmly at the male’s eagerness. ”Since you ask, I suppose to north-eastern borders could need some extra attention. Inferni, the coyote clan lies in that direction and though the war is over it could not hurt to be careful.” Those borders were also closer to Halifax, and though Conor had no idea where his crazy father hid, he knew that the dark brute had been fond of the human city in the past.
