Rurik hadn't been wandering around the main hall for very long before his comfort level began to decline. He hadn't realized just how many wolves had managed to pack into the court house, even though he was doing his best to keep to the fringes, he was still having to twist and dodge to avoid groups that were too caught up in personal conversations to notice anything else.
It wasn't just the large crowed that was bothering him, but the mixture of smells in the air. He wasn't preoccupied with talking or dancing so he had time to notice all the mingling scents. Food, wolves, the natural must of the court house, all mingled together as tightly as the assembled packs. At one point, he passed by a wolf that agitated his nose so bad that he sneezed. And the sound. It rose and dropped randomly. At it's peak it hurt his ears, at it's low point it still hurt his ears, but not as much. With the combination of sound, smell, and worry he was beginning to get a head ache.
Then, just as he passed in front of a pillar, someone ran into him. It wasn't a hard shove, but it didn't have to be with him off balance. Who ever it was made him stumble a bit and hit against the pillar with his head and shoulder, making the almost-headache he had a full blown throbbing pain. It didn't take long for him to regain balance, and when he did his first reaction was to turn, snarl, and try to fend off an attack, but then he noticed who had run into him. A small girl, at least a foot shorter than him, who was apologizing and looked as scared as he felt. He didn't recognize her, but it was possible that she was Casa since he hadn't met all the members yet.
"Calm yourself." He said, rubbing the side of his head that had smacked the pillar. "I'm fine, no permanent damage, just a bump on the head. What about you? You aren't hurt are you?" He wanted to make sure she hadn't hurt herself tripping or running into him or something.
