"Enoki Ashrelle is a beautiful name if I may say so." Tor's words mustered up a light flush to her cheeks, thankful for the thick lining of black fur to cover any hint of it from the male. Though still young in age; barely closing in on the final months of her fourth year, the former Ashrelle princess was never showered in compliments or given male attention in general for that matter. That was if you exclude her former mate which was if anything just a yearling fling conjured up with the excitement of being on her own for the first time after deciding to leave her home mountain range back in South Dakota. All in all, she was rusty in the area of romance and its many forms. "Thank you, i'm flattered." She spoke, her voice sincere and delicate in tone. With introductions aside, finally the mystery men became strangers no more as the younger boy gave his name in turn before the conversation drifted to Enoki's hunting expedition. Titan Thorben was his name and a fitting name it was with his height advantage easily making him a titan in his own right. Once he grew into his full potential he would be a force not worth messing with and she mentally added him to the list of wolves not to mess with for future reference.

Both men flattered her skills which she admittedly enjoyed. There was nothing wrong with being given appreciation for ones talents. That was the woman's biggest need in life, to be appreciated even if it did stroke her ego on the side. I'm just glad to be of use somewhere with my hunting skills, but I do appreciate the offer." Her later words were directed towards Titan, offering him a small nod in silent thanks. Hunting was almost a hobby to her, enjoying every aspect of it from the initial tracking to the actual hunt itself and everything in between. Over the course of her loner years she did what she could to perfect her art as a way of 'giving her something to do' and pass the time. And now that she was home, she would invest these skills to make sure her new family was taken care of. She would be damned if they went hungry with her around. It was Tor's question that caused her gaze to once more waver between the two and settle on the older males for a quick second to show that he currently had his full attention for the time being before dropping it again. "I think that would be nice. I haven't gone hunting with another in quite some time." Her words fell genuinely from her lips with an interest that mirrored his own, offering the dark man a sincere smile before turning her attention to Titan, curious if he had any input on the matter.

"Speech"

Enoki perked her ears in amusement at Xetor's mention of being a fisher wolf, a trait she found very interesting. She had attempted to fish a time or two when food was scarce, but never could quite get a grasp on the art of it. Perhaps this fisher could teach her the tricks of the trade and would voice it so after politely awaiting a reply from Titan on Tor's question about hunting. This question brought genuine curiosity from the Ashrelle. She wondered if he too found the hunt as exhilarating as she did, though with him being a yearling still she didn't know if he had been on his first hunt with the pack yet or with his previous pack who she assumed was the odd, foreign scent that faintly lingered on his silvery hairs still. A scent she hadn't come across yet since returning to the Lore. Her brow raised slightly as she continued to wait, the yearling now further off than what she had remembered him being only a minute or two ago. Perhaps he was just the type that didn't like to sit still for long, his body still full of residual puppy energy. She let the thought go and switched her gaze once more to the second in command after Titan answered his question.

"If you don't mind, would you care to teach me how to fish sometime? I've always wanted to learn and think it to be a useful trade for one to have. Especially to a huntress such as myself." Her smile grew faintly wider after she spoke, her tail thumping more against the dirt and causing a small dust cloud to form before she laid her tail back down to curl it around the curvature of her back left leg. After a moment she stole a quick glance to her left to keep an eye on the carcass that remained untouched next to them (minus the large chunks missing that Elettra and herself had feasted on at the meadow) aside from the small swarm of flies that began to collect on the decaying meat. She would need to get the remains of the carcass to the cache soon. Satisfied that nothing had attempted to steal her gift during their conversation she turned her head back around to give the two her full attention once more.

(Sorry its a shorter kinda blah reply)

"Speech"

The woman couldn't help but chuckle softly at the enthusiasm that suddenly filled the boy upon the discovery of a rabbit scent trail, clearly becoming set on giving chase before his lips spoke of it. She had caught whiff of the scent herself, but paid it no mind with the depths of her belly still content with her meal earlier at the meadow with Elettra. "I should be just fine, but thank you. May the luck of the hunt be with you, Titan." She encouraged the yearling before dipping her head in farewell, a common phrase that she remembered her home pack always saying to each other before the hunting party would disband to catch the next meal. The familiar saying arose old memories of home, but she pushed them aside not wanting to be reminded of the last dreadful months she had spent there and the famine that evidently caused her to leave.

Now that Titan had ventured off on his personal hunt for rabbit, the Ashrelle woman rose to her feet and gave her body a much needed stretch from sitting for longer than she anticipated. Shaking out her pelt, she then turned to Xetor and remained in a standing position knowing that she shouldn't keep the second from his duties longer than necessary. She would politely ask for the direction the pack cache was located then let him be on his way and perhaps meet up again sometime when he was free from pack duties to give her a lesson or two on fishing. "I best get this meat to the cache before something tries to come along and snatch it." She said with a toss of her head to the side to indicate the carcass that still laid untouched. "I wouldn't want to keep you from whatever task you have left to finish for the day, so could you please point me in the direction of the cache, Xetor? I'd be ever grateful for your help." A small smile appeared then on her lips, waving her tail behind her in a good, friendly manor.

(I'd say one more post from you then I can close it with her walking off to the cache and we can make another thread with the two if you'd like sometime?)

"A few caches can be found along that route heading further into the territory. If the closest is full then look to the next one along the line to see if it isn't." Xetor advised while pointing his body in the direction she was to follow to reach the string of cache sites the pack used. With a silent nod in thanks and both farewell she padding over to the carcass and stole a quick glance back in his direction before speaking. "It was nice meeting you, Xetor. Until we meet again." With that being said and the second scurrying off to finish his tasks, she dipped her muzzle down to grip the ankles of her kill just as she had to drag it home from the meadow. With one mighty heave she got the mass of dead weight to start moving again, keeping the momentum going as she dragged the carcass down the main pathway towards the cache site just off to the side of her.

Her first official meeting with a Willow wolf (well two wolves) had gone relatively smooth and had put a nice little pep to her step, letting her tail wave like a mighty banner behind her to promote her good spirits while there was no wolf of higher authority around now to force her to keep a respectful stance about her. It didn't take her long to come to the first closet, but with a quick peek inside she noted that just like Tor suggested it may be, it was too full to fit the half of deer carcass she brought with her. So it was on to the next. Switching her grip from the ankles to the back haunches she swung her body around to carry the meat backwards toward the next cache, a fluff covered smile thanks to the deer hide appearing on her lips as she managed to find a spot big enough within the this cache to store the carcass. Shuffling it inside she then gave a proud huff and nodded her head in satisfaction. The first of many gifts was now safely tucked for the pack to enjoy, a first task for the pack now under her belt. 'That'll do, girl. That'll do.'

End.
