Kajika nodded his understanding as Veho spoke about not pretending to know the will of the ancestors, “I believe that you are much too wise for that.” He had heard Veho speak of the ancestors before so understood how his friend felt about them. He could not say for sure if what Veho was facing was a test or not but he could at least try to help his friend think it through so that he might make the best decision that he could. “Maybe if it is a test it’s not necessarily to test your peity but maybe a test to learn something about yourself or to teach a lesson that they feel you might be ready to learn?” In some ways he felt that this particular conversation related to him as well and the recent choices that he had made. Perhaps he was being tested as well. Though he wasn’t really sure how he felt about the ancestors and whether or not they were there to guide wolves on their journey through life it didn’t mean that everything Veho believed wasn’t true. After what he felt to be a betrayal by his birth pack perhaps he was being tested to see if it was possible for him to fully trust another. He felt he’d made the right decision but he also couldn’t predict the future which meant there was no way for him to know what the future would hold for his new pack and what he might have to do. It seemed that the questions he’d posed had struck something in his friend as he was speaking about his fears. Some of the same ones that Kajika had felt himself when he had first agreed to join Fallen Tree Cove. “I think that it is only natural after being on your own for so long that there is some reservation about being part of a pack especially one that you are not very familiar with. You’re right about there not being any certainty in either decision but perhaps the willingness to take a little risk is what is needed?” Kajika wasn’t one to like much risk and instead thinking everything through till he was sure that he was making the right decision but he did understand that when he could not know everything about the situation it was necessary. Kajika smiled, “I think that deep down you know what choice you should make and all you have to do is find it,” Veho might be right about them running into each other at this time with him getting through a similar decision, “Perhaps the Ancestors had a hand?” He said tilting his head to the side, “I’m not sure about wisdom but perhaps the voice of experience. Not at this time but perhaps I can take you up on that at a later date?” |
