Overo was slightly surprised when the female appeared before him so quickly. More often than not, the packs he had met during his travels were much less willing to speak with strangers. On one occasion he had even found himself surrounded. Frankly, this was a welcomed change. Overo relaxed his body posture after deciding that this female seemed unlikely to attack, still keeping his head and tail low. He still didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, therefore keeping his image non-threatening. She held her head slightly raised, telling Overo that she must have some status in the pack here. The way she spoke only confirmed his guess. She was polite and formal, speaking with authority, but she didn't seem like an Alpha to him.

Something about this female was vaguely familiar to Overo, but he couldn't place it. Her posture, the markings in her fur. Not being able to place her, Overo put the thought aside for the time being.

"No, to be honest with you, not really." He replied cautiously. "I have been traveling for months, so I'm not familiar with this area." Overo shifted his weight, adjusting his paws in the cool dirt and glancing around at the trees. He supposed he could have stated the obvious and mentioned the pack territory, but any canine with a nose could determine that. In the end it had seemed redundant, so Overo had just decided to be honest.

He couldn't help but wonder if other wolves from this female's pack were watching. Experience told him not to let his guard down, but he refrained from looking around to avoid being rude. He didn't feel uncomfortable around this female, but couldn't help but being wary.
