Ishtar nuzzles the sad, resigned Lunaia as he stands on his dark legs. Sensing the weary mourning around the child, he gently lifts her with his muzzle, carrying her back towards Forest Deep. As he enters the soft forest clearing with the small pup, he carries himself tall, apparently not caring who notices him or what they think. After all, he's not here for them. He sets Lunaia down on a soft bed of grass, looking back up to the other wolves.

"This child has lost her mother," he says slowly-but-clearly. "She was murdered, it seems, and it rests twice as heavy on the shoulders as one so young—to have never known her mother and to be robbed of the chance. She has asked me to stay with her, and for now, I will."

That's all the black-masked wolf says. Why should they need anymore? Despite what they might think of him, he is still the child's kin—though none of them may know it—and since her other relatives here seem too preoccupied for her, he is not.
