Vathmos had not been in Tanglewood long enough to grow any semblance of a bond with Leroy. If you asked her tell you anything about him, Vathmos could give his name and description, but that was about it. She didn't know him that well. He had been in some position above her, but he didn't hold any other interest to Vathmos. She had lost some weight since they last saw her, she had no idea how much. Vathmos didn't know if they would notice or not.
Her ears perked and head raised as the next approached. Vathmos' tail went up a shrill whoop exited her throat. She stuck her tongue out, showing her teeth and looking the fellow hyena up and down. She looked strange. Her Mohawk was bigger and longer, she had stripes instead of spots. Vathmos' brow furrowed and her voice continued to shrill into her hyena laugh. Vathmos' laugh didn't come with any intent of kindness or joy, it was more in a jeering manner.
"I'm from nowhere. I used to live here." An expression rocked across her face that one could only describe as a smirk. Vathmos' origin wasn't true- she had come from the Spotted Hide tribe to Tanglewood, but they would never take her back. Spotted Hide had exiled her, so she could never return. "Wanted to come back for a bit."
"I know it's Tanglewood. That's why I stopped at the border." Was this someone she would conflict with? Hm....
She felt Aurum butt his head against her and nuzzle her, and she recoiled in the slightest. She sucked in a breath at the touch, lifting her leg up in the recoil, and taking a step back. "Well, sorry to hear about your eye." She tilted her head, looking her friend over. "Listen, uh, Wormwood, I'd really just like to get a meal before doing any catching up."
