Suku

Suji was starting to get on Suku's nerves. Why couldn't she just listen to him for once? It was dangerous to be wandering around alone out here, especially at night! Sure, the weather looked clear enough right now, but it could turn sour in an instant! What was she thinking?

He paced the breadth of the narrow cave, trying to think of where she could have possibly gone this time. He let out a low growl of frustration, the sound echoing off the ice above his head in a rather satisfying way. He knew that trying to search for her was a bad idea; if she returned and he wasn't here, what would happen to her? But he couldn't bear the possibility of her growing ill and collapsing in the middle of a blizzard without her big brother there to protect her. He sighed, settling down to wait with the decision that he would watch the weather like a hawk...and the moment it looked less than favorable, he would set out to search for her.

Suji

Thank goodness! She was finally free from her brother's ever-watchful eyes, if only for the moment. Why didn't he understand that sometimes she just needed to be alone? She wasn't made of glass, as much as he'd like to believe so, and she could handle being alone for a few hours without collapsing in fever. She'd be fine.

She wandered through the mountainscape cautiously, the familiar feeling of snow weighing down her fur making her lips curl into a smile. She didn't shake it off, reveling in the freedom it represented. If Suku had been here, he'd have nit-picked at her fur until every last drop of snow was out of sight. She hated it. A little snow wasn't going to kill her; what was the harm?

She finally stopped next to a lone tree in the middle of the vast expanse of snow and rock, looking up at the way the needles swayed in the harsh arctic wind. She had confidence that she'd make it back fine -- she'd paid close attention to her surroundings on the way out here. She had to prove to Suku that she wasn't as fragile as he thought.

Notes | Looking for someone to meet Suji at the lone tree she found. Preferably someone from either the Aludri or the Eden pack, but a lone wolf is okay, too!

He Walks. | He Talks. | He Thinks.

Anikira was finally falling back into spring and warmth. As always, the northern regions were melting slower than the south, but there was one place that the Aludri leader was certain would never thaw. Sure enough, when his paws crossed the border of his pack and he traveled into the northern territory of Cryothia, everything was still frozen and icy. There was a time when this land belonged to his pack, and he smiled slightly as he remembered the day he had claimed it. It was the last time that he had seen his father outside of the cave where he had withered away slowly as the days went on, and he offered a small sigh at the memory. His past was gone, and along with it Aludri had forfeited their claim to Cryothia long ago.

His paws spread like snowshoes as he walked across the frozen ground, his thick coat already accustomed to the colder temperatures because of his experiences. It was vast and open there, and he closed his eyes for a moment as he breathed in deeply. Spring was coming to the rest of Anikira and it would mean flooding, but also more prey. But Cryothia was always the same, stable, constant. He enjoyed the crisp air as it flowed into his lungs, and he exhaled slowly with a small smile as he watched the puff of air rise from his muzzle and into the still air around him. That was when he noticed a figure in the distance.

The lone tree up ahead was not something he had never seen before, but the wolf standing beside it was new to him. Now, Cryothia was an unclaimed territory now, and as it did not belong to his pack, he had no reason to rise up in defense or grow aggressive towards whatever stranger laid ahead. He did worry, however, for his pack so near in the south. Still, there was plenty of space between where he was now and the clearly marked border of Aludri, so he let his breathing remain normal and his tail hang in a relaxed position behind him as he trotted forward curiously. When he was close enough he inhaled deeply, picking up the obvious scent of a female, but there were hints of at least one other wolf on the wind as well. She might not have been alone, and therefore his pace slowed to a walk and then finally a stop several yards away from her. "Hello there." He called out to her, offering a friendly wag of his tail and a courteous dip of his head in greeting.

Suku

Suku had a bad feeling about this. Without realizing it, he'd begun pacing again. What if some other wolf found her before he did? What if she was lost, and didn't know her way back? What if, what if, what if...He needed to see her. Now. With a long sigh, he headed out of the cave and into the frozen landscape beyond.

He followed her tracks a fair distance, but they were already faint and the wind was beginning to pick up snow to cover them. He'd have to move fast before the only evidence he had of her location completely disappeared. He began to run alongside the trail, but the weather was turning and soon enough, the trail was gone without a trace, fresh snow laid on top of it. And he was utterly, horribly lost.

Suji

Suji had been lost deep in thought when the stranger approached, thinking angrily about her brother and, surprisingly, her father. She rarely thought of her mother these days, let alone her father. How did he and her mother meet? Was their relationship always as unpredictable as the weather; arguments one minute, love and cuddles the next? Why was she thinking about this now, of all times?

She didn't get to answer those questions before she jumped as she heard a voice merely a few meters away from her, and immediately anger bubbled up inside her. "Suku! I told you, I--!" Her voice trailed off as she turned around and realized that the wolf beside her was not Suku. "Oh." She said lamely, feeling incredibly embarrassed. She glanced around, realizing that the weather had begun to turn while she was lost in thought. As much as she hated to admit it, she should head back...

Almost as soon as the thought arrived, she began coughing, as if she didn't have enough things to think about lately. She stumbled a bit on her paws, leaning against the tree for support as her coughing turned into wheezing. She instantly regretted leaving the cave, despite knowing she was starting to get sick. She'd had a slight cough for a few days now, but she'd been hiding it from her brother. She didn't need to be doted on. She knew it was reckless to leave, but she had to get some time to herself.

This time, the coughing was much worse. It was a full minute before she fully recovered, and when she did, her throat felt raw and speaking was painful. She turned towards the stranger, briefly wondering if he'd take advantage of her weakness like her brother always said.

At first he was not certain what to expect, but when the female stuttered for a moment and then coughed and stumbled, he was sure he was prepared for anything but that. Still, the male could not stop himself from rushing forward in concern. She might not have been part of his pack, but he was still a kind and caring wolf that could not simply stand by and see someone else suffer without doing something about it. "Miss, you really should not be out in this cold." He said softly, lowering his head and ducking it beneath hers in an attempt to help her keep her balance or catch her if she fell forward. "Please, let me take you to the caves, they will be warmer." He said softly, pausing to look around with a frown.

Was she traveling alone? She had no strong pack scent on her, but he could have sworn he smelled at least one other wolf mingled in the scent of her coat. Was she traveling with a companion? He wondered where the other wolf was, but from what he could tell it was nowhere near them at the moment. Therefore, his attention would remain on the coughing female for the time being. Once she was safe and warmer, perhaps he could go looking for her companion. If she actually had one, that is. What two wolves were doing out in the barren landscape of Cryothia so close to the end of the winter months he did not know, but he knew she would not last much longer on her own if he did not step in and do something. "I promise I will not hurt you, but I cannot just leave you out here to freeze to death." He said quietly, leaning forward to hopefully nudge her gently in the direction of the caves.

If she walked with him he would allow her to lean onto his shoulder for support, and he wondered how she had so easily grown so quickly ill. His coat was thick and well adjusted for the cold weather because of his lineage and experience, but though she seemed built for the cold, she still appeared to shiver, shake, and cough as if it bit right through her white fur. Perhaps she had already been sick, and almost immediately his mind went to when his father had fallen ill. When he had gotten sick and shortly after Arche had lost just about all the family he had ever known. Since then he had started two families of his own, and he was confident now that the one he currently had was going to last. A small smile crossed his features as he thought about his mate and pups, but it lasted only a few moments before he refocused himself on the task at hand.

Suji

Suji tensed as the male rushed forward, knowing she was in no condition to fight right now. She squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for the inevitable when she suddenly felt his head beneath hers. She opened her eyes cautiously, uncertain of this sudden turn. Then, he spoke. He was concerned for her? Why?

It wasn't like she hadn't met other wolves before, although they were few and far between with her brother's interference...but she'd never been alone around a stranger, and certainly not while sick. She always assumed that the other wolves were so passive because she had her brother's protection. That's what Suku had said, anyway. She was small and had little fighting experience; certainly, she'd seem an easy target for anyone looking to prey on another's weakness.

She blinked away her surprise, a cough tearing through her already-sore throat. He was right; she needed shelter. But more than that, she needed her brother. She didn't quite trust this stranger's concern for her...Suku would know what to do. As much as she didn't always enjoy his company, she had to admit that he usually knew how to handle situations like this.

She shook her head, but swayed a bit on her paws and allowed him to support her on his shoulder. She might not trust him, but until she could find her brother, she'd have to. "My brother..." She spoke, her voice coming out hoarse and painful, barely audible over the wind, which was starting to pick up. "He's..." She froze as she realized she smelled pack on him, her voice dying in her throat. Should she tell him? What if his pack was planning an ambush, and he just needed their location?

She shook her head to clear the thought. What would a pack want with them? They hadn't crossed into their territory yet. It should be fine...right? She tried to open her mouth to speak again, but her voice was too hoarse and the wind too loud. A blizzard was rolling in, she realized. It was already beginning to get difficult to see. She frowned before eventually conceding, nodding at him to lead the way to the caves. She could find her brother later. For now, she needed to stay alive.

Thankfully the female eventually allowed him to lead her towards the caves, and he did his best to use his form to block the wind and keep her as warm as possible during their slow progress. When they finally did reach the warmth of the caves, he carefully led her further inside where the wind could not touch her coat. He wanted to go back out in search of her brother right away, but he also knew that he needed to get her warm before he left her side or she might not be alive for him to return to with her brother. He sighed softly as he carefully attempted to step around her, hoping that she would allow him to use his body heat to warm her shivering and trembling body at least for the time being. "Please let me get you warm. Then I will go and look for your brother. You really are not built for this cold climate." He said, frowning down at her as he attempted to move around her.

Perhaps he acted like a worried father in those moments, but he did not truly care what she thought of him for the time being. She needed his help, and he could never let anyone just freeze and die out in the snow alone. Not if there was anything he could do to prevent it. His own thick coat and life-long experience made it easy for him to adjust to the cold climate of Cryothia, and he had even eagerly claimed it for Aludri long ago. But they had since given up that claim and giving the land back to the roaming wolves, and that day he was grateful that he had been nostalgic and had gone wandering north. Eventually, though, when he was certain that she was getting warmer and was at least stable, he pushed himself back up onto his paws and moved towards the entrance. "I will go look for your brother now. Please do not leave, you need to stay out of the wind and snow." He said, throwing her a worried and stern look for a few moments before pushing his way back out into the freezing wind outside.

Then he lifted his head to the sky and howled, wondering if the sound would even reach the other male. He assumed that he would look similar to the female, and would definitely carry her scent. His nose lowered to the ground and he prayed that the strange male would be in a position that the wind would blow his scent in his direction. Thankfully, it seemed that luck would be on his side, and he carefully began to follow the slightly familiar scent through the heavy snow and brutal wind. "Hello? Is anyone out there?" He called, uncertain of the male's name, just knowing that he had not wanted to waste the time interrogating the sick and weak female.
