"Huh. How…weird. Never been in a pack where wolves just left before. Chased out, sure-" Heck, that was how she ended up on her own, traveling to Relic Lore. "-but not just up and leaving. Why would you do something so dumb, when a pack is stable like this? Maybe they tried to start their own, or something," Desideria wondered out loud, bristling at the thought. She didn't even know these former pack members, and the likelihood of ever crossing them was rather low – but she couldn't help but feel a small amount of distaste towards them.

How dare they abandon Namid and Vespertio! These were the best alphas she'd ever met, and deserved nothing but loyalty, the female thought firmly.

But, Anthem here was not the right wolf to get angry at. After all, he was one of the few who remained. If anything, she felt herself warming slightly towards him, appreciating his loyalty more than she found herself fearing it. "Well, it wasn't a bad use, I guess. I might have been getting a little…mouthy. It'd been a while since I'd been in a pack and Primrose… Well, you know. You saw." The white witch had rubbed the newcomer in all the wrong ways, and Desideria wasn't eager to get bullied by the beta. Respect was one thing, but terrorism was another entirely.

However, if the male second hadn't seen her either… "Is it wrong that I hope you did? She's so cruel. Doesn't seem like the kind of wolf that would protect Namid at all, if it came down to it. I wonder where she went, though… Will she get in trouble, if she's not contributing?"

The tawny woman listened in silence, quietly filing away all this information if it should ever become relevant. She'd known, from her discussions with Namid, that the alpha hadn't founded the pack – she'd joined as any other member, and slowly raised her way through the ranks. Eventually, she took up mateship with Vespertio, though whether or not that was before she became the female leader, she hadn't the slightest notion. However it happened, she was glad it did – Namid was the finest queen she'd ever met. If not for the silver fae, it was unlikely she'd have ever joined the Fallen Tree Cove pack at all.

Humming softly to herself, she couldn't help the small smile as Anthem agreed with her notion. It was nice to feel like she was among the majority for once. Perhaps she'd been wrong, writing off the beta as someone to be feared, and if not feared, wary of at the very least. This meeting had gone much more pleasantly than last, and Desideria was of the impression that had much more to do with the white wraith's presence, and a fair bit less of the older male's own attitude.

"Well, I certainly wouldn't miss her. Hopefully she finds her own way out," the rogue answered firmly, giving her head a short bob. Whatever the alphas had planned for her…well, she hoped it went quickly, and they could all get on with their lives. "I should probably get back to border patrol…s'what I was doing earlier, yanno? But I'm glad we had this talk, Anthem. Thanks for answering my questions," Des murmured, a smile dancing across her August eyes as she gathered herself to depart back towards the border. "See you around, yeah?"
