A somewhat large black wolf sits alone outside the gathering of wolves. He is close enough to watch them, but far enough to be virtually unseen. All that accompany him are his thoughts. The pain he feels for his, once again, lost love. He debates with himself for a moment whether or not he should proceed. It was not, after all, here that he felt drawn to. That knowledge is like a stabbing knife in the pit of his stomach. And a dull, constant reminder.

He pushes away the flood of memories that would come then.

But then he remembers the promise he made to Small Wonder, last time he was with her, and stands back up, padding slowly into the clearing. When he steps out of the shadows, it can be seen that he is a fairly large male wolf. His coat, once ink-black, absorbing every scrap of light, has dulled somewhat. Perhaps because there is no longer such an intense blackness in his soul. His eyes, a bright, glowing green, are slit like a cats, and they hold a quiet sadness. Despite that, he carries himself proudly, free of some of the guilt that has so long haunted him. And, when he sees WindChaser, he smiles broadly, and genuinely. He greets her with a small nuzzle, before turning to the others and bowing his head for a moment.

"Windy," he begins, though he doubts it before he ever asks, "is she yours?" His eyes are on Piper, that he asks the question. Though there seems to be something different about the pup, something he's seen before.
