Riddle Heights In Odd Favors

Fresh air. That's what Matias recieved. Snow fell from the sky, blanketing the male's pelt. As a he pawed through a deep mound of snow, he flicked his tail in irritation. "It's beautiful and all, mother nature, but why do you have bring so much? It's not like it's something we need." Talking to himself was his habit. It wasn't as if he was a psycho or anything, for the most part. It just proves he's smarter than the rest. That's what he believed.

Throughout his life, Matias was the reserved one in the family, and he was always perfectly fine sitting and thinking profoundly. He never bothered anyone. That's how it was half the time.

Matias had only visited a couple areas in Relic Lore. No matter the day, he always had to urge to return here, in Riddle Heights. He had held the urge back for a couple days, but it broke free. The view called him. Resting his head on top of his paws, he lay on top of the ridge admiring the view. No matter how reseved or quiet Matias was, he had a quite innocent side to him.

"Wellaway! I guess i'll take a few more minutes admiring the view...with closed eyes." He whispered, his eyelids slowly descending. He was hoping, that it was in a low probablity that a stranger would come and notice this young adult sleeping.

The large russet female searched. She searched for her lost leader and she searched for the mate of her new friend Nina. The wolf that she searched for was one and the same. He was mate to her friend, but not to her leadess. This concept still boggled her mind, but all of those that it mattered to seemed all right with the situation. Mates that lived apart, alphas that were not mates. It was so very foreign, although she did not think that it was common practice, even here. Well, not too common. It seemed that her own brother and her friend Nina were to lead together, but not be mated either. At least for a while. Shrugging her shoulder to herself, she decided to think on that another time.

Right now, her purpose was to find Koda and somehow bring him home, providing that he still lived and had not perished from his terrible injuries. Her bright amber eyes and keen ears were working overtime as she scented for any wolves. She remembered Koda's scent from when she joined Willow Ridge, but another wolf may have seen the fallen leader and the old wolf that had appeared mysteriously at the scene of the accident. This area was unknown to her, so any help would be a boon.

Tempest's eyes lit on a form on a ridge up ahead. It appeared to be a napping wolf, so she made her way closer. Her nose told her that he was male and a loner and her eyes told her that he was younger than her and smaller. These facts she repeated in her head as her familiar adrenaline rush hit her. She always had issues with lone males. At two she'd nearly been force bred by one of the rogue males that had murdered her beloved sire. She'd ended his life for his troubles, but the memory still haunted her. It was the moment when she'd lost her innocence, even if it hadn't been her physical innocence. She''d seen true evil and taken a life for the first time.

Pushing the urge to just keep walking away she moved a bit closer, her body slightly tense but still neutral. She wasn't afraid, for she was more than confident in her abilities to take care of herself, but she was always uncomfortable around strange males when she was on her own. She cleared her throat softly, not wanting to startle the sleeping wolf in case he was the aggressive type and decided to take exception to her presence. Although she had to force it at the moment, she put a small smile on her face and greeted the slumbering wolf. "Hello. Hello, there!"

The Calm in the Storm

Matias was a light sleeper. A sound or one small movement could wake him easily. The male's ears perked up quickly as he took a quiet sniff. He opened his eyes, waking to the scenery that lay below him. Cautiously, he turned his fierce gaze toward the wolf that stood behind him. She was a large female with a long coat filled with mixture of browns. He was a bit nervous, but he had his long lanky legs to take off in both directions in case she was a territorial pack wolf. He hadn't dealt with pack wolves while was he was here in Relic Lore, and he was hoping his first encounter wouldn't be a nasty one.

No matter how nervous he felt, he stood up and continued to gaze at the female. It was his specialty to impreganate others with his eyes. As he looked over the female, he shook his pelt. "I wasn't a bother right? Just me, getting some sleep." he replied confidently, but also in manner that he didn't seem spiteful. His suspsions were slowly dying as she smiled after greeting him. Was she playing a trick to confuse him? He let out a sigh, unable to read the female. He just had to hope this wasn't some trap of some sort.

Tempest wasn't sure what to make of the male when he woke easily and turned to face her. He seemed a bit cautious, but he didn't act threatening at all. He was almost apologetic, as if he had been the one to disturb her. It didn't occur the large female that he might think that she was a pack wolf from around here. In any case, she forced herself to relax a bit more, waving her plume gently a few times, although her shoulder and neck muscles remained tight beneath her multicolored pelt.

Her smile broadened just a bit, feeling more natural when she answered, "No! No bother at all. I was just wondering if you could help me out." She paused for a moment, trying to read his body language for his reaction. He still appeared neutral so she continued quickly, "I'm looking for a pair of wolves, both large males. The older one is pale and lanky and the other light cream and silver with a head injury. Have you by chance seen them?" She hoped that the descriptions would be enough to go by. Surely there wasn't another large male wolf walking around with a head injury...
