She had been going to the borders periodically over the few days that she had been in the pack, just to look outside. Dierdre wondered if she would like her new life here, if she would fit in...but she already knew the answer. Of course she would like it, and of course she would fit in. Her family lived here--her aunts and uncle, her mother and grandmother. She belonged here. And her pups would be raised here, amongst their family members. Not far away in Storm. Dierdre would stick around Jaded Shadows for a while before venturing out; she was still afraid of running into Pilot.
The white, medium sized wolf sat down for a moment, her mismatched eyes taking in the surroundings. Something was moving off in the distance, but she wasn't paying attention to that area of the horizon. She was staring off toward Storm. Soon, though, the figure became larger and larger, until she could clearly see a form. It was a pup, one that she had never seen before, with a coat as dark as coal. The mother-to-be frowned, standing up. It was true that she was new, but she could at least see what the little one wanted. He was howling, trying to call someone over. She quickened her pace, trotting toward him as fast as she could. "You there. You've arrived at Jaded Shadows. Are you hurt?" Best to find that out first. He didn't look too happy...maybe he was injured.
