White paws daftly carried stocky body through endless expanse of homeland, fluffy fur finally beginning to dry in the warm afternoon sun. Nalithien had long since given up on finding her friend, Nithron. Directions were just not her forte. Even with the aide of sharp senses she'd somehow managed to get turned around more times than she could count. The only thing she was sure of was the fact that she was still within her family's territory. In the span of a few long, boring, lonely hours she'd managed to pad her way through the entire thing.

The poor little femme looked so forlorn, tail drooping and tall ear pulled back while the other flopped uselessly. It was quite easy to tell when Lithi was upset, considering she wore her emotions on her pelt. The silky white hues were often given their cream tint from the strength of her joy or fear. At the moment she was quite lonely, and said emotion preyed easily on her separation anxiety. To say the Tundra wolf hated being alone was an understatement. If she didn't find someone soon she was positive she'd go nearly mad.

Drawing closer to the hot springs, a stranger's scent did indeed catch her nose. She paused momentarily to verify that she'd just scented another wolf. Then she bolted forward with great enthusiasm. Finally! Someone to keep her company. Lithi practically pranced over to the sleeping grey female, a bright smile on her maw. Her tail wagged merrily behind her, her voice booming out. Though she in no way intended to, there was a good chance she'd just scared the poor fae half to death. "Hiya!" she chirped, planting herself firmly in front of the smaller fae. "I'm Lithi. Who are you? And why are you in the water? It's all wet and icky! I hate being wet! Don't you hate being wet? Oh! And how come you didn't howl? Papa's not gonna be happy with you for trespassing. Unless you actually want to end up like that idiot that got me all filthy..." She trailed off, bitter memories of the encounter with Rhylyn still fresh in her mind. After a moment she shook them away though, looking at this new female expectantly. Company was company after all, even if it was unwelcome.
