Haha, yeah. xD You know this thing runs on liquid time? You can be in multiple threads; you don't have to wait on slow old me.

Element looked out at the shore on Bindu's question. Her eyes had widened at the prospect of a wolf pack, and he wondered if she ever was in one before. He had always assumed that all canines lived in packs - that was their nature, to work together and achieve goals. But he had also met lone wolves - Daisuke was one, traveling only with his companion, Schwarz, for company. Tannin was another, but he had seemed more deranged than anything else. Perhaps Daisuke was the exception, and most wolves needed companionship to survive? This red-clad teenager certainly seemed as if she wouldn't survive for very long without somebody or something to help her.

He looked down the shoreline. He had a vague idea of where they were, but he couldn't be sure. The mountains were visible in the distance, and he quickly judged where they were and the closest packs to them. He thought for a split second about which she should go to for help - not the Inferni, certainly. And if she went alone, he felt he should warn her against the hostile clan whose borders were littered with the skulls of their enemies. Phoenix Valley, he wasn't sure of; he knew they were friendly enough. And Dahlia de Mai he knew would help the pup; Nayru made her pack out to be helpful and kind.

He looked back to the wolf whose name he still didn't know and gestured east. "You should avoid the Inferni," he said. "They're very hostile." Element pushed away a nagging thought about why he knew the Inferni were hostile and moved on. He then gestured southeast, a little bit away from the Inferni. "That's Phoenix Valley," he said. "They're near enough, and kinder than the Inferni. You could do worse than asking them for help." He then pointed towards the southwest. "And there is Dahlia de Mai," he said, remembering fondly Nayru. "They're also friendly, and I'm sure they'd be happy to help." Element lowered his paw. Those were the three closest packs; if this pup wasn't too injured or weak, he may even be able to guide her to the pack she wished. Although he was fond of the puppy he'd met in Dahlia de Mai, he secretly hoped she wouldn't choose them; he thought he'd been pushing the limits when he wandered in there for a fish. And he was curious of Phoenix Valley; he'd never been there, nor did he know their traditions. He only knew that they were on generally good terms with the rest of the packs, which meant they couldn't be too hostile towards wolves.
