Skye was not deaf to the call that sounded from the borders, from a mysterious and unrecognizable loner. As she drew closer, she could pick out the scent of Eclipse, as well as a slightly familiar scent; it smelled something like Hotaru, but it was wrong. The scent was male, rather than female, and most resemblances to Hotaru stopped at the very surface of the scent.
Holding her two pups in her arms - they were now almost one month old and quiet adventurous and a handful - she made her way to the border, near the Border Tree where the call had come from. Finally, she saw Eclipse, along with the strange loner. He looked identical to Hotaru in every way - it was very strange, and she assumed that he was, perhaps, her brother.
Her suspicions were confirmed as she caught the tail-end of something he was saying, that he was Hotaru's sibling. "Hotaru is indeed in the pack," she said, breaking through the trees so she was visible to the two canines. She dipped her head to Eclipse before training her eyes on Hotaru's sibling. "I am Skye Collins, leader of Cercatori d'Arte. Do you wish to join us?"
