Yeah I disappeared for a week without warning x.x I'm very sorry.
The ivory figure in front of the ashen Savant caused her to blink a few times to try and make sure she was seeing this right. Not too many wolves these days came sniffing by like this as if they had never even known a pack resided here. The mountains Anathema called home were the closest territory to the Valley out of any of the other packs and Tala was sure that every member knew of heir neighbours at this point in time. Tala was one to go out and explore the land just out of curiosity on her own time, maybe it was wrong of her to think all others did the same thing. Yes, that was not a good thing to assume, and for that she would apologize if need be.
Tala had not meant to startle the woman in any way, and the tone she received in response seemed....perplexed. How interesting. Tala never meant to catch anyone off guard, on the borders or not. "It's alright, no harm done." The woman had not trespassed, there was nothing to be mad about. They could not get mad at someone for just being near the border, how rude and unfriendly of anyone who did that. "This is Phoenix Valley, a pack for dreams and kindhearted souls looking for a place to fit in among friends." There was a smile on her face as she introduced her home. Such pride she held for this place and her belonging to it.
"Pleasure to meet you, you are from Anathema, correct? I know of a few others from the mountains already." No need to mention the foulness of one, and the great kindness of the other. That was all personal, no need to vent on strangers, visitors, potential friends.
What exactly was the woman doing so far from the mountains if she did not know this pack was here? Simple exploring perhaps? Tala was no stranger to that, not at all, and nobody would be scorned on her part because of it. Trespassers were another story at this point, but simple wondering.... not a problem at all.
