I'll dance amongst the stars
Word Count → 218 :: Zalen is noticing the lack of members in Ichika at this time.
It took a moment, but soon, the female appeared, her visage that of a wolf full in bloom of motherhood. As soon as she spotted the pair though, her stance hitched, and Zalen could tell she was uncomfortable at the sight of him. Tharin spoke soothing words to her, and Zalen lessened his dominant stance, instead pressing his ears back and wagging his tail in a friendly way, Hello, Kiara… He said softly, somewhat in awe of her maternal glow.
Zalen followed suit with Tharin, sitting down in a relaxed position. But then, something in the wind caught Zalen’s attention, or at least, the lack of something. He raised his nose to the sky, sniffing; the scents were faint, old, faded… the only scent that was strong was that of Kiara and her pups, most likely hidden in a birthing den far off. What was this? Should not the scents of the Ichika members be strong here at the borders?
Suddenly, Zalen became very nervous, but instead of showing it, he looked at Kiara and gave out an affectionate whine, focusing instead on the task at hand, Kiara, Tharin has requesting we come here to speak with you. He worries for you and your pups. And Zalen then turned to Tharin, to allow him to speak his peace.
