The alpha female had not attempted to engage the black male alpha in conversation or play; it was clear that he was sobered by the loss of his former pack, and she didn't blame him. She let him be to hunt and come and go, and yet the camp was full of life. A musical and interesting member of Cavalieri - Biff if she recalled - was quite the cheerful and excited fellow about the trip. Hotaru, although queasy during the caravan trip, seemed to be calming down well; Skye had talked to her a bit, laughing and conversing as they had in d'Arte.
One d'Artisan was separated from the group, however, by a small fire next to his son. Skye left the other members to their jovial conversation and came to sit by Taliesin; he seemed in a pensive mood, picking at his jeans and sighing. She stared into the fire a bit, pondering of the trip and of those who had left before before turning to the white member of the Council.
"Good evening," she said. She could not help but notice his slightly somber expression, coupled with his thoughtful one from moments before; she wished to comfort her friend - one of her only friends - and make sure he was okay. "Is everything alright?"
