Wonders delicately small milky brown wolf form seemed to drift across the forest floor, not making a single sound. She was currently exploring the woods of Ethereal Eclipse of her new home. Conor Soul had given her a quick tour of the lands but nothing to in depth as there had been so much to see! She already knew she liked these lands, they fit her well. The woods were cool and comforting; the only thing Wonder didn’t like was not being able to see very far ahead without trees getting in her way. She had to keep reminding her self there was no danger here. Well there might be some, but this was pack lands. No wolves, loners or otherwise, were going to come out of the bushes and fight her for trespassing or chase her away from a hard earned meal.
Wonders tail waved as once again she was suddenly struck by the thought of her life now. She wanted to leap for joy and actually did a little jump and yipped then looked around embarrassed. But it didn’t last long and she broke into a run, unable to hold her calm any longer, flying through the forest. She soon stopped, panting. She stood there for a minute catching her breath.
As soon as she was more or less breathing normal she lifted her dark brown head to the breeze and sniffed. She smelled a squirrel and suddenly realized she was starving. She dropped into a crouch and crept forward until she could see the squirrel about fifteen feet away. She crept forward ever so slowly, acting on instinct and using muscles that had done this many a time. At about ten feet from the squirrel a crunching nose from a ways off alerted it and it ran up a tree, not giving wonder a chance to even begin to chase it. Growling, Wonder turned and sniffed, she smelled a wolf. She was up wind and far enough away that it hadn’t smelled or heard her yet. So she turned and headed to the noisy wolf that had chased her meal away.
As she approached, slithering along the ground, as quiet as can be she saw it was a male wolf. He was well muscled and an ebony color. He appeared to be searching for something. Wonder suddenly wondered if she should say something. She didn’t want to startle him. So she said ”Hello, have you lost something?”
