Kiara woke up with a start from her nightmare. Her ears twisted this way and that as her nose quickly tried to pick up any and all clues that might be found in the air. The sounds of morning reached her delicate ears while the damp smell of the forest calmed the she-wolfs frantic nose. Kiara was safe and back in Ichika no Ho-en. She had returned late last night from her travels outside of the packs lands. Her most recent misadventure had nearly caused her to drown in a riptide. Although Kiara loved water, next time she would be more careful around the sea.
Kiara stood up from her patch of moss and vigorously shook off the beads of dew that clung to her snow colored coat. As she stepped off the mat of moss the young wolf took care to stretch her muscles and limbs in preparation for the day. The she-wolf strolled over to the nearby stream and bent her head to take a long, cool drink. Once her thirst was quenched, Kiara raised her head and licked her soft, wet maw to remove any stray drops of water.
Ickika was beautiful. It had a wider array of habitats with plenty of game to be found. The land had a calming and serene atmosphere. Kiara was glad to have found a home here and now that she was back from her travels, it was time to meet more members of the pack. Perhaps one of them could help her with the initiation task that she had heard of. Kiara lifted her snowy head toward the skies and let our a howl, calling a friendly greeting to anyone in the nearby area. The arctic wolf sat back and enjoyed the scenery, waiting for someone to answer her call.
