Roala laughed as she walked. "It wasnt hard to figure out. I've never known a wolf to take someone to a cabin and make sure theyre warm. " she looked at him with a amused gaze. "And the fact a man was suddenly there when I woke up. " looking forward she tilted her head. "Well Forest you don't have to worry."

Waiting for her while she changes, Caspian slips on a jacket, eyes flicking to her when she returns. Gaze trailing her as she pulls on boots, he clears his throat when his gaze starts to wander past her tattoo, looks away until she speaks, jaw ticking
"Do I at least pass for something a little more.... Civil?"
Turning back to her, he tilts his head, studying before he nods, relaxing at her obvious distaste, brief dilemma past him "You look fine. Now, let's go."

"You look fine. Now, let's go."
She nodded, taking a breath and stepped towards the door, grabbing the cloak and wrapping it around her shoulders, her hair and skin pale and stark against the blackness of it. "What are we getting?"

Forest looked down, rubbing the back of his neck, his accent thickening a little. "Apologies. I should've told you sooner." He hesitated again, not knowing how to explain the other part of him.

"Its OK. I too have things I can't explain, and they're weirder than yours. " she raised a hand to his shoulder, but it wasnt her own. Well not the one attached to her. She looked up as they reached the village, hand disappearing. Her feet moves faster, trying to get there before he arrived.

"What are we getting?"
"From the market?" Caspian murmurs, leading her out of his house, hand resting at her upper back between her shoulder blades a moment when someone walks by, polite nod "Whatever you feel like eating."

"From the market? Whatever you feel like eating."
Iberia studied her surroundings, having not realized where it was she had ran to the night before. "You forget, we aren't choosy when it comes to what we eat. Meat, berries, foraged goods. It's what we survive on." She paused, trying to find her manners again. "Besides, it's your home. Your gold, your food, blacksmith."
Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS "Its OK.

And seeing that she had just finished talking, Forest didn't know what she had said. But he didn't say anything more as she sped up and the hand disappeared, And he turned his attention back to his surroundings, leading her to the little shack he had normally seen the boy near.

Roala looked at him when they reached the shack before rushing past him. Stopping in front of the door she gently pushed it open, stepping inside. She blinked letting her eyes get used to the lighting again. "Centric?" Calls quietly, hoping he hadn't arrived yet. She watched as a small lump in the far corner moved. "Hey you're early. Is-" her voice caught as he stepped forward, eyes widening once he was under the light.
Cenric looked at her. "Morning." Says quietly. He opened his mouth to speak when he felt a hand on his chin, causing his head to tilt in examination. "Its nothing. " the following I'm okay caught in his throat when he felt a pair of arms around him. He tensed immediately but it didn't last long. "I won't leave you alone. You don't have to go home."he heard the girl say. Those words echoed in his head and he reached up to hug her back, showing a rare sign of affection.

"I don't forget, because you're the first wildling I've actually met, how could I have known? I don't follow the words of heresay." Caspian murmurs, heading west, walking through streets "It may be, but you're my guest. And, I can eat anything."

"I told you earlier I would eat anything," Iberia grumbled, looking away with a scowl. "If you can eat anything, then choosing what you want shouldn't be a problem then, would it?" She looked at him without turning her head.

"Morning."
Forest stepped towards the door, hesitating, but stepped close enough to the door frame, lingering outside as he surveyed the village, giving them privacy.
"Its nothing. "
"I won't leave you alone. You don't have to go home
Feeling the vibrations in the floor, he looked back at them, eyes softening a little at them, then he turned and stepped away from the door, shifting when a gust of wind carried a cloud of snow across the ground, using it as his cover.

Roala held him as his shoulders shook, but she felt no tears on her shoulder. Hearing a movement behind her, her head swiveled around, only to watch him shift. Exhaling she started humming a tune she grew up with. The one she was holding onto stilled before he pulled back suddenly. Her eyes met wide confused ones. "Cenric?"
"That tune." Says partially peering behind her. He knew that song, and because she was singing it he took a step back. Warily he examined her again-before he hadn't cared enough to actually look at her. She was just another who wouldn't help him. "Who are you?"

"I told you earlier I would eat anything.If you can eat anything, then choosing what you want shouldn't be a problem then, would it?"
"But you must have something you like," he presses "Hmm?" sighing softly, he grins at the second statement "That's true, I suppose."

Forest moved to walk away, but at the flash of fur between buildings he froze, watching. From an alley and into the street, a wolf much larger than him trotted out, nose to the ground, and upon seeing Forest, stopped and raised its head. It made a sharp yip sound, and Forest instinctively backed up a few steps, ears lowering as his instincts recognized the other wolf as an alpha, and he turned and darted inside the shack with Roala and Cenric, turning around again and facing the door. The wolf stared, then continue on in a swift bound away from them.
"But you must have something you like. Hmm? That's true, I suppose."
"Meat," she replied, though something up ahead caught her eye. She frowned, recognizing the colors and suddenly she stopped as a light colored wolf darted out into the street, looking at her with keen eyes. Her breath hitched, muscles tightening, and lowly, almost like a growl, she said, "Hei'nat, Iniago?"
The wolf stared a moment longer, a sound raising from its chest, though it turned and took off down an alley.
A small panicked look crossed Iberia's face and she ran forward, reaching the mouth of the alley and followed after Iniago, cutting down another side street she saw him turn on, though in a heartbeat the wolf was gone, prints disappearing, and she stopped, eyes wide. "Iniago...?"
Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS Iniago ran from his master, though most of him wanted to run back to her, but he needed to return to her betrothed before he could do that. He ran out of the village and towards the forest, slowing as he reached the edge. Retracing his steps, Iniago wove through the underbrush. However, about twenty paces from Jayks, something black collided into his side and threw him off balance, him and the mass rolling over the small hill as he let out a sharp bark in warning. Once at the bottom he scrambled to his feet and away from the creature that struck him, meeting the yellow eyes of a pitch black wolf, who growled and tackled him again as he stood in almost human-like shock, the two flinging up snow as Iniago called out to Jakys again.

Roala looked at him, debating how to break it to him. "I'm-"
"You look like my dad. "He interrupted. He wanted to know why. How had she known the song?"
"You found the elephant in this room. She sighed before running a hand through her hair. "I've heard that before. But the only thing similar is our cheeks. "She looked at him nose scrunched. "Be grateful you don't." At the confused look on his face she chuckled. "Hello little brother, I've been looking for you." She watched as he turned to the door. Following his gaze she paused before walking to the wolf behind her. "Forest? "

"Meat. Hei'nat, Iniago?"
"Meat it is then." Caspian states, frowning when she mutters some words, turns to her "Ib-" cutting off when she runs past her, he pauses then gives chase, stops when she does, breathing hard
"Iniago...?"
"What are you doing?" he hisses, looking around, in a shadier part of town
Words: --- Addressed: --- Mentioned: ---
Waiting at the edge of the border of the village Norcrest, Jakys looks down at all the rising smoke and lights in the distance, pulls his cloak around him with a shiver and a curse. Head whirling around at the sound of a snapping twig, he starts to relax at the sight of Iniago, goes stiff again when something shoots out of the forest to collide with his companion "No!" he yells, pulls out his sword and manages to get the stray wolf's attention, eyes narrowed as he circles it, slightly hunched over "Leave him be." he growls, cold look of anger crossing his face, doesn't have to pretend, he's alone after all

Forest watched the doorway, fur high on his back, though once the wolf was gone it flattened, not having realized that Roala had spoken to him. His nose worked before he finally relaxed a little, starting when he felt the air move behind him and whirled around.
"What are you doing?"
Iberia stared at where she had last seen Iniago, hardly winded after the run. Her mouth worked a moment in silence before it clamped closed, expression growing troubled. "That was my companion," she murmured, frown deepening. "How did he...." Then it dawned on her, and it was realization that painted her face.
Words: WORDS Addressed WORDS Mentioned: WORDS "No! Leave him be."
The black wolf's head snapped towards him, jaws drawn back in a wolf like grin as it pinned Iniago, who squirmed in the snow. At the distraction, Iniago snarled and reached up to snap at the other wolf's neck, but it whirled on him in a heart beat, jaws around his neck, but by no means did it truly bite him-- only kept him still.
Behind Jakys, a girl stepped forward an held a knife to his throat, leaning over his shoulder just a little. "Don't move a muscle," she murmured, voice dangerous. "Or he'll get his throat ripped out by Onyx."
As though to support his master's claim, the wolf tightened his jaws just a little, squeezing out a whine from Iniago.
