The female was in high spirits; she knew that the pack's numbers were low, but she was confident that they would be able pull through in these hard times, especially now that they were back to creating. The boat had been a success - although it may look shoddy and unprofessional, with a little paint and effort, it could be something beautiful indeed. And despite its downfalls, it did float, and it did sail - and that was all that mattered to the alpha of Cercatori d'Arte.
Her mind was snapped from such thoughts when she heard a howl coming from the borders; the tone of the voice told her that it was not a voice from the artisan pack, but of a different creed; as Skye began to walk towards the area in her Luperci form, she heard another howl soon - this one was more familiar, and Skye placed it as belonging to Hotaru, a blind yet respected and cherished member of the pack. Skye knew that Hotaru was slightly reserved, but she valued her nonetheless, and wondered what lay for her to see at the borders; perhaps one decided to join the small pack now?
Skye smelled the two women before she saw them; one smelled of Cercatori d'Arte; it was the Immaginazione, Hotaru. The other had no scent but the scent of wolf - this must mean that she was a loner. Breaking through the trees and bushes, Skye soon found herself face to face with Hotaru and the loner; the first thing she observed was the loner's position, which was very submissive. Skye appreciated this - while she did not demand submission from her members or even of joiners, unless they were arrogant or rude, she was glad to see Hotaru paid with the respect that any loner should have for a member of her pack, particularly one that was highly ranked. She turned to the blind woman first and dipped her head in greetings. "Greetings, Hotaru," she said. She then looked to the loner, warmth in her eyes. "I see we have a loner here at our borders?"
