Set on May 18th. I just assumed that Jaz was a little ways off and crouching when Macbeth spots him. xD

So far, things had been running smoothly for the de Fonte. Ever since being accepted into the pack, things have been turning up for the upside following her joining. She had met a few of Casa’s members in the past two days, and found that they were mostly endearing, especially the young girl she had met. Macbeth also spoke of how he approved the location of which Alyssum decided to stay; "Good hunting here," he had explained in his raspy voice, and chirred, "Better place than clan full of ravens. More food for Macbeth. Macbeth likes Casa than clan. Better wolves too. Macbeth heard birds talk about coyote clan, say that good eating found there. Not good news." The woman found his words ominous, but she did not spend much time pondering over them; Inferni was not her concern anymore, and instead looked forward to her time in Cavalieri.

She found herself wondering around the Fort around mid-day, while the magpie either fluttered ahead when he saw something that caught his interest or perched on her shoulder when the former was not seen. Despite it being late spring, the southern hybrid still felt the slight chill that was foreign to her being, and decided to wear a burgundy shirt, which the sleeves covered about to where her elbow was, providing her enough warmth yet did not restrict her in any way; Alyssum knew that unexpected things could happen, and made it some sort of duty for her to be prepared at all times. Even now her bag was slung across her shoulder as she made her way past the barn and the Courthouse, hands resting on its straps as if she was ready to grab something that was carried within it, whether it would be her dagger or the pieces of meat that was for lunch.

It was not long until her feet drifted her to the back of the tall building, and was sort of surprised by what she found. It was covered with flowers of all sorts, their color vivid because of the refreshing spring that lifted them. She did not expect to find a garden in her path—but, expect the unexpected, she reminded herself, and pressed on, though she took her time to admire the vegetation. Macbeth also took interest in the bright colors, finding that their brightness attracted him like a moth to a light. But, ever aware, he glanced at the path ahead of them while Alyssum was inspecting a patch of the flowers her namesake was after, and gained her attention by lightly tugging her hair. "Not alone," he reported, and pointed his beak ahead where what seemed to be another member of the pack. The woman nodded and began to walk towards the figure, though something about it seemed familiar.
