[Alyssum de Fonte]

Both coywolf and bird were to busy eating, and the cloud of prey scent surrounding them, neither of them noticed the canine until he spoke. She bit down on now a bone that she was gnawing on in surprise, easily cracking it. With perked ears, she looked up to see an unfamiliar male, but after the shock dimmed down, her tail whipped along with his. "Greetings. And yes, you came a bit too late... If you want, you can have a couple of bites of it, if you are hungry." She did not like it when she ate in front of others unless they were munching on something as well, and also did not want the other to feel disappointed for tracking a rabbit all over the place only to find it already caught. She knew that feeling all too well.

"Wolf Macbeth saw," the magpie chirped as he inspected the him from Alyssum's back, beady eyes watching him closely. The woman blinked at the bird, and again tried to scent the air around her. Through the strong smell of rabbit and bird, she could detect the faintest hints of another pack, and it was slightly familiar. She remembered passing by it a few days before she joined Casa. "How are you enjoying Casa so far, friend?" she asked kindly, knowing that he must have been a welcomed guest by Jazper and felt the need to be friendly.

"In any case, my name is Alyssum de Fonte, a Verita," She stated as she introduced herself, and flicked her ears towards the bird as she continued,"And that is Macbeth. He said he saw some wolves earlier--other New Dawn members are here, aren't there?" She wondered if they were looking for help, or perhaps for an alliance. Or, they could be just visiting. Whatever the case, she wanted he and the others to feel welcome, whatever they were there for.
