There were so many scents to take in and try and make sense of. She hadn't detected scents of anyone she knew but then her access to these lands was..rather limited. Not that that was exactly or entirely new but it still bothered her, still made her wonder if this pack was maybe hiding something..unpleasant within its borders. She would have to be careful, very careful, if she were going to find out though. For now she would sit..or maybe she should lay down instead? She didn't want to look like she was patrolling or anything like that as that would make them suspicious and likely to ask questions that she might have a rather difficult time explaining. Sure she could say if asked that she was more used to roaming than staying in one spot but even that could only go so far as an explanation and she had already done some exploring. She sighed internally. She wasn't fond of the waiting that came with these endeavors but it seemed the time had come for precisely that. Waiting.

Which meant back to her original though of sitting or laying down somewhere. She would have to pick carefully though. She wanted somewhere out of the way where she could think and concentrate without drawing too much attention but at the same time she didn't want to seem as if she were trying to hide either as that would almost certainly raise questions just as constantly going back and forth would. She had passed a few potential spots earlier so she would head back towards them and hope one of them was available.

It didn't take long for her to locate the first location and luckily enough it was empty and held no scents to indicate it was claimed. Good. She didn't want to cause any upset being a visitor here by taking someone else's sleeping spot. She slid under the shaded spot and then after a bit of shifting to find a position that suited her, allowing her to be able to keep watch and scent for anyone without much chance of being snuck up on from behind, she gingerly laid down to rest and to think. And also to wait. Who knew what or whom she might need to be prepared for next.

((so this is being liquid timed to when Aylie was here and visiting))

Let me see!

It's my turn!

HEY!

Eli woke with a gasp. Eyes took time to adjust to his dark, dank chamber. The stone and dirt hovel tucked under the crumbling castle had been his hideaway for most of the winter.  it was cold, for unlike the reptiles that buried themselves during the snowy weather the dog was conscious to the frost. The occasional rats and worms that could be found in the tunnel were less than sufficient so the dog was sometimes forced to venture out to hunt. While food in the stomach was nice the ventures out of the hole broke his concentration. When days and nights were haunted by voices and visions, keeping them at bay took willpower. And it seemed that willpower was growing every day. When Eli agreed to follow the strange human to a new land filled with wolves and hellions he thought the biggest obstacle he would have to face is learning to live with such a strange pack. Never did he think it would be the spirits that would make adjusting to Gemini such a trial. Not that he was convinced that's what they were.

Paws squelched in the mud as the dog cautiously emerged. Short coat clung to his skeletal frame, obvious testament it was far past time for a proper hunt. Eli paused as he took in his surroundings. Be it spirits or (as he sometimes suspected) a newly discovered defect in his brain, there was nothing but the soft din of spring noises coming from the woods. A tired smile crossed his face. Finally, a little bit of peace.

Golden eyes looked up to the blue sky and he sighed contently. Nights would still be chill for a while but Eii was comforted to know he wouldn't be constantly shivering. A creek fed by a spring was not far from here, and in his last few visits he found it ice free. The dog drank, tail wagging as he quenched his thirst. But one ear swiveled around as he lifted his head. Someone was behind him. Eli stood still for a moment, gauging to see if he felt that pressure, that presence in his mind. Nothing seemed to be reaching out, this was legitimate...hopefully. The dog hopped around to face the stranger, hoping it was a friendly one. He may have been staring, Eli noticed to late, but nowadays it was hard to believe exactly what his eyes saw.

"Hello. Uh," clumsily he lifted a front paw, trying to balance on two and motioned to the water, "Care for a drink?"

Spirits didn't need water. He presented a simple test.

((Please ask though pm before joining))

A dark gray and cream color wolf slipped through the grass, he seems to be just aimlessly walking. However, he was deep in thought. He flicked his ears back as he came to a stop near a water's edge. He let out a sigh and almost dragged his paws as he walked over to the water. As he started to drink he could hear the low roar of thunder. It could be heard coming from the far north of where he was. The winds had just started to shift and pick up speed. His deep blue eyes scanned the sky around him once he was done drinking. He leaped on top of a nice size rock that was next to him as if to try and get a better look. The sky was growing dark; he looked behind him towards where he had come from and then back to his heading. The rain would do him good, it could help hide him as he slinked back to the only place he could really call home. Perhaps it was time to revisit some older thoughts once more? He flicked his tail before jumping off the rock and splashing into the water below the rock.


He had made his way to the other side of the river as the rain started to fall, perhaps he would find something interesting out here. He slinked around the sore line a bit before heading into the palm trees a bit. There was a bright light that little up the night sky as if it was daytime followed by a loud crack of thunder. The storm had gotten closer as he had taken his time to swim across to this island. He let out a soft sigh as he was slightly annoyed with himself. He scented the wind as it picked up. He couldn’t pick up anything but a damp earth smell mixed with the scent of the surrounding water. It was throwing off his nose at the moment. “To knock or not to knock” he thought as took a quick look around. No one was within sight. “So much for people being on guard in this area”. He let out scoff at that though.


He let out a short howl before taking a set under the palm trees. It wasn’t in the mood to be kept waiting. He wondered who would show to great him. He didn’t think many would welcome him warmly. If they knew his father they would likely be keen to steer clear of him as well. "Well, this is eventful..." he said sarcastically out loud as lightning let up the night sky once more before the thunder rolled.
