New Beginnings (Olkhon Island | Baikal Lake, Siberia)

[Tenzin]

When Sierra made it clear the bag and its wallet belonged to another, Tenzin accepted it with a shrug. Thalia was not pack, then, and she didn’t give it another thought beyond the subtle twist in Sierra’s scent when she spoke about it. Wildfyre’s friend. Wolves and kin both kept to themselves in the dream usually. Though there were others who shared the place, it was generally for different reasons. Since Tenzin used the dream to reconnect with her brethren when the cities were particularly isolating, she had never actually encountered one, nor desired to.

“Hurting?” she asked softly. Her nostrils flared to the quiet scents, and she only voiced it because Sierra was kin and it fostered in her a natural sense of camaraderie. She didn’t fear overstepping the mark, because Sierra would simply correct her if so. She watched the other woman reach for her own wallet, and tap out a message.

“Can talk if wanting to. Good ears for listening.”
