| Star Light | Fighter | W/ Open | Spaced |The large gray wolf stood on all fours to shake his fur free moistness. He hated the feeling of a wet belly as much as any wolf would. It was an uncomfortable feeling to have the warmth of his body slowly defeated by the cold white blanket beneath them. He moved further away from the tranquil river, the sound allowing a soothing environment for the both of them. Too bad they could not make dens over here, to Louie , this was prime real estate. To have the pack a little further away, water at will, a bath at will, space, and most importantly -peace-.
His ears swiveled in her direction, as she asked him a question about where he was going. He was still waiting for Dante to call him to clean up the remains. Louie hoped that it would not be the she wolf’s first rodeo in clean up duty. “I am waiting for Dante to tell me what to do with Kikui.” he paused. The ending of his words sounded so harsh on the outside, ‘ what to do with Kikui’ like the elder wasn’t one of them. Louie cleared his throat hoping that she did not take it offensively. “Unfortunately, Kikui has passed away from old age - there is a vigil being held for him. Come with me.” he offered her. Dark brown eyes moved from the she wolf to the pathway that he had come from. His paw prints still fresh into the snow’s brief memory. Louie began to pad away from Cleo and head towards the rest of the pack.
The sound of snow crunching ringing in his ears as they traveled. When he made it towards the common grounds area, he looked to his right to see wolves gathering over the elder’s den. He was not one for vigils or death events. Louie preferred to bury the lost ones and move on. Something he’d taught himself , as a way to cope with unfortunate life events upon the demise of Mira and his pups. He kept moving his ears , keeping an ear out for Cleo whilst they walked together. “If you want, the vigil is over there.” his snoot motioned towards the gaggle of wolves piling up as they came to say their goodbyes. He wanted no parts of the mourning fiesta. “I’m going to check in with Dante. I’ve had my fill of death for a lifetime.” he mentioned. He was about to head straight to Dante , until he saw another group of wolves near him and Destiny. Maybe he should hold off a moment, he figured that Dante would howl for him when he was ready. There was probably a lot to tend to between the hunt and the death. “On second thought” the sound of his voice carried with the wind just as fast as his thoughts traveling. “I’ll take a hike until they’re all situated - someone needs to watch the border,” he shared. With everyone being here on the common grounds, that left them defenseless of their rivals. Louie quickly started to walk again, towards the border to patrol while the rest did what needed to be done.

Star Light | Hunter | W/Open | Calm |Athena gave the healer her space in order to take care of Cypher. Even though she was confident in their healer, the lack of empathy from Scythe was astonishingly disappointing to Athena. She thought that someone in medicine would not be so harsh with words when dealing with their patients. Assumingly, she figured that Cypher would be in shock and panic at the idea of being alright after an injury. The healer’s words felt quick with no empathy. Her focus shifted back on Cypher as the pair went back and forth in a brief conversation.
The healer had practically shoved Athena out of the den and told her to take something to the elder’s den since she could not do two things at once. “I’m not helping someone with an attitude like that.” she retorted , her voice now serious with a full punch of bluntness. The hunter’s tail flickered with irritation as she rose from the ground beneath them. None the less - Cypher would be fine once he healed properly. At least if he gives himself the chance to. Athena turned away from the duo and proceeded to pad away from the healer’s den. Instead, she decided to wait until the commotion was over from Kikui’s vigil.
Of course the pack was going to hold a vigil for the elder wolf, who she knew so little about. In her time here, she had only encountered the elder a pawful of times. He would tell stories to the pups to keep them motivated for their future to come. Nothing too striking there as that was something most elders did in their free time. She took a glance over to where Kikui’s final resting place was, seeing the abundance of wolves saying their goodbyes to him as they went along. Athena lowered her ears , while she and Kikui weren’t close , it was unfortunate that they’d lost a pack member.
Without haste, the wolf walked back to her own private den. It was placed just behind a tree that led to a pathway to the woods. A jet black figure made its way through the den area, thinking to herself about the recent events. Maybe that’s what set her off about Scythe - there was a sudden avalanche of issues arriving in the pack. She gave it a very brief thought before chalking it up to the fact that there is a lot going on at the moment. Between the elder’s death, Cypher’s injury , her missing majority of the hunt, the border issue from earlier. Athena could only imagine what was going through Destiny’s mind while all of this was happening.
