It wasn't something that needed to be thought about to a creature who was feral and the only intention was for him to survive. To eat, to hunt, to protect his pack. But his pack, he didn't know where his siblings had gone. He missed his beta Grey Wind the one that he looked to for assistance when things were rough for them. His brother was always so level headed when things were looking to be their worst. Shaggydog and his rough antics though he proved to be an amazing hunter. Then his sisters, they were both sweet and fair, though Nymeria had a wild stroke about here and one he didn't understand how to quell. Summer was quiet and obedient to the pack order and Lady was ever a companion for him. His sister stayed with him through thick and thin and he allowed a low breath to leave him. After leaving the cold lands of home because of their disappearances he had wandered for a while till he had found another canine worth his salt. Chromeo he didn't understand but he had helped him when he was injured, blood sleeping through thick pale fur. A Wound Healer that much he knew and then he also became a Food Giver, often providing him with meals while his wound slowly healed over. It was interesting and so he sought to see this one as an equal, perhaps another alpha? The idea wasn't so clear to the large beast but he was something to protect and so he did though all of their journeys. Even to the place of Much Water they had gone and then ended up here. Again where snow seemed to be the dominating feature. It was interesting.
Yet the brute was unfamiliar with this pack and the way that they function. Most he intimated to back down and show submissive behavior as was his right being the alpha of his own pack. But some tempted fate with him and that could cause a lot of problems in the grand scheme of things. Still the large male moved through the ever encroaching snow, feeling it press against his upper legs just slightly as he moved across the landscape. It was familiar territory for him and though he was still getting used to the place the snow helped. He was going hunting, something he did when there was low food for himself and the other equal that he had decided to stay accustomed with and live with as well. But the hunt was interrupted by a long howl. One that made his head jerk up to the sky. For a moment there was no movement from the massive canine, head cocking to the side. That howl was familiar and one he had not heard in so long that he almost forgot it. Almost. Lifting his head he allowed his own howl to ring out from his throat, deep sound resonating through the forest before he was pushing through the snow, shoving it away from him. Lady, Lady, Lady, it was his sister. He started at a slow trot before soon he was galloping through the snow with ease.
But as he came upon the scene after following where the sound had come from there were already individuals there. Creatures he didn't trust and he allowed a snarling growl to leave from his throat. A clear warning for those in the area to back off. His tail was held up high as he located his sister then, gaze swarming over her frame as he slowly approached, lowering his tail a bit. Gently he allowed a whine to leave his slightly parted muzzle as he spoke to her, immolating her name through that sound. 'Lady.' He attempted to nuzzle her gently with his snout before another whine of concern left him once more as he moved to her side to allow for her to lean against him if she so wanted to. He could smell her exhaustion and he could see that she was weak and withered. What had happened to his littermate? He hadn't forgotten about the audience though and he narrowed his eyes a bit, fur along his spine bristling just the slightest amount.
