Magnolia had been bestowed with a secret mission, one that was given to her after her successful trade with a certain Infernian to obtain her new horse, Jasper. He had proven himself to be an excellent addition to her life; he made the time it took to patrol the borders half what it used to be and with Claudia’s also recent arrival the group had blossomed into a tight knit family. They constantly traveled together. Magnolias life in the barren thistle kingdom recently had become rather pleasant and social with her sudden influx of new companions. However, for this mission, the kitten was left behind. Maggie’s superiors had told her to be swift, quick, and silent. The three animals could certainly do that.

Maggie had washed the three animals off with snow and dirt to wash the Salsola scent from their bodies several times on the way to Ichica. This was the first time the young Confidant had ever heard of such a place; unfortunately the spy was blissfully ignorant of the northern packs that were her mysterious neighbors. Inferni had proven to be an interesting place despite only interacting near their borders. As Maggie was leaving the coyote land, she couldn’t help but snoop around the edges to see what their security was like. Her heart raced when she saw the menacing heads; with that, the hybrid stopped looking around and galloped back to Salsola with her new companion.

The dawn was just beginning to break when the group set off eastward. Nothing unusual happened though Magnolia urged Jasper quickly past the Inferni border. The mountain made travel difficult for a while but soon enough the smell of her target pack wafted past her nose just as the sun was going down. Jasper had been left outside of the range of their borders tied to a small tree. Magnolias lithe optime body sneaked into the territory once darkness fell, her graceful body almost cat-like.

Kimbra had taken to the skies with the intention of getting the layout of the land. The confidant took note of the buildings and their contents, where their pack meeting places were, and where the highways ran. Her superiors also expressed an interest in learning where they kept their animals. Smell and tracks made the guessing game easier; she found the stable soon enough. She didn’t recognize any of the creatures she saw there except for the horses. As one of the square-eyed animals was starting to wake up, Maggie fled in case it was to make a racket. She hadn’t made a sound the entire time; her heart was fluttering and her maw was flushed as she ran out of the land with all her might at the end of the reconnaissance mission. Their security was nothing Magnolia couldn’t handle. They seemed more of a peaceful pack than her own allegiance. Ichika didn’t seem too interested in secrecy.

Jasper had wandered off somewhat from where he was originally placed but she found him in a reasonable time in the darkness. Exhausted, Magnolia rode home, thundering hooves beneath her being the only thing keeping her alert during the long and lonely ride.
