[/html]Standing beside the two council members, the masked woman lowered her gaze to her fingers, which tangled and untangled rhythmically in front of her. Her audience with AniWaya's authorities played in her mind repeatedly. The problem of the crops being unattended had bugged her since some time ago, but she was glad that she had been of help to solve said problem.

One by one, all the AniWayans arrived to the meeting. It hit her hard that now there were less wolves to the pack. Unfamiliar faces everywhere. That had been one of the reasons that moved her to doing that suggestion. Making everybody coexist in a determined work space and finally working as a whole.

When everybody was present, Claudius introduced everybody to the project that the three had planned for the following month. When he said her name, the woman smiled shyly to the crew, as if to emphasize her participation in those machinations. Then Ulilohi's turn to speak came, and more news were delivered to them, this time about the feast preceding the sowing. Everybody would need any nourishment before the job that waited for them, and everything to keep their main source of food healthy. In her eyes, that was a way to return the favor to the animal. Food and shelter in exchange of their life.

The chieftess made a gesture towards another member, Io, who was in charge of bringing the food. The masked woman followed the movement with her eyes, but then refocused her attention on the rest of the tribe. She wanted to say something, but doubted that her voice would match Ulilohi's. Besides, everything that had to be said was said already, so she contented herself by looking at the AniWayans and their reactions to the announcement.
