(Ok, so I thought moving the rp between all of us here would make things a heck of a lot easier. Besides, a wolf can't be in three places at once, so this will make it less confusing too. Also, I'm going to be changing the Initiation requirement about number a days roleplaying, mostly because I know all of you and it will speed things up a bit with all of our busy schedules. I may not be able to post for the rest of the day today since I have finals to take/study for, but if I don't, I'll be sure to get in a post tomorrow night. Oh, and you guys don't need to repost your entrances, just respond to mine ^.^)
Less than a fifty yards away, another female wolf listened as the footfalls halted and faint voices whispered in the wind, but did not share their secrets with one at her distance. Her pinnae stood erect as she tried to hear more, but all fell silent. A sigh escaped her maw before she moved from the underbrush toward the pair of scents that had stopped for the night.
She moved stealthily across the land, placing one brown-toed white leg in front of the other. An odd mix of colors she was indeed, what with her mostly light gray body, brown ears, and black on brown tipped tail. But what was most striking about her was the exotic, almost heart-shaped mark encircling her right eye. The blue eye. What was even more remarkable about the birthmark was that it was of no normal hue or shade. Instead, it was brilliant lavender. Though many had tried to explain this feature, none had been successful thus far. At any rate, there was no mirroring symbol around her brown left eye.
Both eyes moved over the terra as she padded nearer the sleeping couple, but her nares prickled at the aroma of yet another newcomer, though he was merely yards from the sleeping ones as well. By the sound of it, he was pacing along the scent markers still and had not crossed over yet. Thoughtfully, she left the first pair and moved to the third wolf. Better to let them sleep and greet the other. Her paws struck the ground in an almost skipping movement as they carried her over to the mysterious white wolf.
‘Well, this is lucky. Three in one night. Word must be getting around that this land is no longer abandoned. Hopefully they’ll choose to stay,’ she thought as she neared the other, finally catching a glimpse of the white wolf after a few feet. ‘My, he seems nervous.’
Aniu slowed her pace as she came up to him, head, ears, and tail high, but a genial smile on her maw as well. After all, she may be the ranking wolf of these lands, but she didn’t have to be rude or uncouth about presenting herself.
“Hello there, friend. Do you need any help or direction?”

Carla blinked as the swirling mist of sub-conciousness gave way to reality. She glanced at the sky and supressed a yawn. I couldn't have slept that long, she thought. I'm still tired... She vaguely remembered the sound of what might have been paws on the tundra, but everything was quiet around her now. Reassured, she looked over at Jack, still sleeping soundly beside her, and a smile crossed her muzzle. Leaning down again, she nuzzled him gently and rested her head against his firm chest. She was nearly asleep again when a voice nearby reached her ears.
Though it was too far away to be heard clearly, her ears shot forward and she glanced quickly around as worries flooded her mind. Had they wandered onto another clan's territory? She leaned down to wake Jack.

Silverstrike jumped in surprise as she spoke to him, and quickly jumped a couple of feet away from the source.
"Whoah!" he yelped. Aniu had come surprisingly on him, and he lowered his ears and head, feeling a bit ashamed that he had been that easily scared.
"Y-you surprised me there..." he spoke faintly. Obviously, this fae was a ranking wolf, and he didn't want to insult her in any way, so he laid himself down on the ground.
"I-I'm sorry if I entered the Border, if it's at an inappropriate time. I was just thinking... no, I want to join a pack, and th-that's why I came here..."
He couldn't hide his nervousness at all; and his words sounded so lame in his own ears. He just hoped she'd be kind enough to let him join her clan. He didn't want to be alone anymore.

Aniu watched as Silverstrike lowered himself to the ground quickly and stammered a bit as he spoke to her. For a moment, she was puzzled, for she hadn't been submitted to this quickly in many years, at least not since her pack had been demolished. However, she recovered just as fast and nodded to the mae, her tail slowly rising in an instinctual gesture of dominance.
"I'm sorry, I didn't meant to startle you quite that much." Her face flushed beneath the gray fur. "You did enter my territory, but don't be troubled, you did no harm. Actually, I'm quite glad you've come over here, and that you're looking to join a pack, because you see I'm looking for members and companions as well. My name is Aniu."
A warm smile spread about her maw and she moved around him, circling and sniffing all the while, just to learn a bit more about him and get a good look at what kind of condition he was in. Luckily, he didn't seem quite as starved as Zenny had when she'd first found him, so that was a good sign. He must be fairly decent at providing food for himself, at least.
"You seem to be in good condition. That helps greatly." The mottley colored female then tilted her head, signaling him to follow her. "Follow me. I need to go and great some other travelers who've ventured here, and then, if they decide to stay as well, I'll take you all on a short tour of the land and explain some of the policies I've been implementing."
She waited for him to follow behind before she moved into a brisk trot once more and headed in the direction of Carla and Jack. By now, both wolves would most likely be awake, so as she neared them, she slowed her pace considerably and woofed a light, non-threatening greeting just to show them that she meant no harm before they saw her. Her eyes absorbed the details of the male and female, much like they had with Silverstrike. The way their scents were intermingled, she guessed that they had already formed quite a strong bond. That might be an issue later if she ever actually found a mate, the picky person she was. But she put that thought out of her mind to contemplate at another time. "Hello there, you two. Am I interupting something?"

"Jack, wake up," Carla whispered urgently.
Jack blinked twice and shook his head.
"Wha- Carla, what is it?" he replied, yawning.
"Voices," she replied. "I don't think we should be here."
Jack stood up immediately, and Carla followed suit. Both glanced quickly around, but saw no one. Jack looked at Carla questioningly, but she simply closed her eyes and scented the air. Then, just as quickly, she opened her eyes and turned to Jack.
"Someone is very, very close by. And there's another not much further away."
"Come on, Carla," Jack replied, turning in the direction opposite the one she'd indicated. "We'll just le-"
He stopped abruptly as a nearby woof made his head turn back, and just then, a light grey female came into view from around a group of trees. Carla's head turned, too, and she saw the fae. Her tail was raised dominantly, and fear of insulting the fae who was clearly the alphess of this land flooded their minds. Instinctively, they both turned to face her, laid down and bowed their heads respectfully. At the fae's question, Jack saw Carla's cheeks turn pink as he knew his already had.
"No, kind fae," he replied. "We are the ones who should apologize. We've trespassed on your land and are truly sorry for doing so."
"We mean you no insult, and will gladly leave if you wish us to," Carla added, trying to keep her voice steady, with only some sucess.

Silverstrike stood still as she walked around him sniffing. She seemed to check his condition, or... judge him? He didn't know. While she was doing that, he introduced himself as 'Silverstrike'.
Then he was asked to follow and so he did, standing behind her at all times, making sure nothing was higher up than her; his shoulders, tail, head, nothing would rise higher than her. And he kept quiet.
