* Xiodax lets his gaze watch the two wolves interact briefly, but as neither actually approached him or spoke to him, he would return to his meal of elk meat that he had earned. His dark tail would flicker slightly back and forth as he finished his meal. Once done he would then lick the blood from his midnight muzzle and murr a bit in content. His dark ears would twitch and flick as he listened
* Xiodax to everything around him. He continued to stay laying down, which some might take as non-threatening. After all, he had stayed and helped, and offered to share Lunakai's hunt with the wolves of Kladdatir.
* %Adalwolfa narrowed her gaze and took the first pawstep forward as she replied to Ghost." If anyone starts anything you stay clear of it." She instructed the male unsure of what this interaction might unfold. Assuming the correct posture for her rank as Elder of Kladd`Atir she went on heading towards the mysterious dark pelted male. As she drew nearer his scent stronger she crinkled her nose a few times. Shaking her ebony pelt free of debris to look more presentable . Leaf litter and twig flung in every which way as she huffed loudly annoucing her presence in a less then poliet way. Though her position said she was non-threating at least for now.
* Xiodax would watch the dark she-wolf approach him without any fear and amusement would surface within his penetrating gaze. He could respect a strong female, and so far Adalwolfa approached him as such. He would finish cleaning his midnight muzzle and slowly sit up on his haunches, his movements precise in such a way as to not appear threatening to the she-wolf. His dark tail lightly thumped
* Xiodax against the ground and his ears tilted towards Adalwolfa as she huffed at him. His own nostrils flared as he breathed deeply of Adalwolfa's scent, noting the debris the shook from her fur. Xiodax had a relaxed posture as he did not feel threatened by her approach, and there was a reason why he was the Alpha of Lunakai. His body carried scars attesting to his abilities to survive. He would murmer
* Xiodax politely, "Greetings."*
%Adalwolfa flicked her ear at his greeting studying the many scars he bore. Noting that if a fight did happen to ensue he was a vetran fighter. A thought to herself she wondered if he had ever faced a bear. " Hello I am Adalwolfa Fridolf. Former sentry in training and now proud Elder of Kladd`Atir." Her words full of pride and strength as she let her eyes meet the males." Whom might you be sir? I know you are one of the wolves that ran that herd through our home!" She tried to remain friendly but her own emotions tried to over run pack manners and civil acts of courtasey. Adals voice was deep and slightly harsh at the last part of her sentence as she would fully voice her thoughts on the manner regardless . She had a right to let them know how she felt .
* Xiodax inclines his head politely to Adalwolfa, "A pleasure to meet you, Elder," he said in a respectful tone. He could tell that she was torn between being polite and being rather upset by the fact that his pack had run a herd through her home. Her voice could not keep her emotions out of it. "I am Xiodax Kade, Alpha of Lunakai. I have already apologized to your Alpha, Saigh. Though I will
* Xiodax repeat my condolences to you. I am sorry about the herd stomping through your home; but we are wolves and chase the herd, following where it leads us. My pack and I have offered our assistance to you and yours, and we have shared our kill as well. If we had but known that your pack was here, perhaps we could have tried to direct the herd in another direction." His midnight tail flicked lightly.
* Xiodax "Though surely, Elder, you know that is not always possible," he said softly, in respectful tones. Surely, from his posture and the tone of his voice, he meant no harm.
* %Adalwolfa felt her pelt rise as her own storm of emotion raged inside her. " Your condolences do not fix what damage you cause. Since you are the alpha I hold you fully responsible . I know we are born to chase the herd following where it goes but I was taught by my mother before her departure from this world you keep others in mind." She spoke in a eerie calm tone as she rolled her shoulders trying to relax them only. Her ebony pelt rippled with the action." Call me Adal please sir. " Her voice softer this time but only by a hair. She turned herself to her right slightly making her left side face the male along with the bear claw marks she bore still. Soon she seated her rigid form down in a attempt to look friendly.
* Xiodax briefly wonders if Adalwolfa's damaged ear caused her to not hear what else he had said, or if it was her emotional response, or just plain stubborness. Curiousity flickered within his gaze and he straightens a bit, his tail lightly flicking against the ground. "Aye, Adal, and feel free to call me Xio, or Dax." He shrugged a massive shoulder. "I respond to both names. In any case, that
* Xiodax is why I offered the services of my pack. We are to stay and help, and that is also why we are sharing the elk that we hunted, since we ended up in this territory. It is the very least I could do to atone for what happened. I know you must be very upset, but truly, we had no idea there was even a pack here. We had never come this far from our territory." He noted that the Elder had bear claw
* Xiodax marks upon her, and it was a testimony to her will to survive that she had made it this far. He also noted that she was trying very hard to appear friendly and calm. "It is impossible to keep others in mind if you are unaware of them in the first place," he said honestly, feeling that she would appreciate his being blunt with her. She seemed to be the sort that would rather know the facts than
* Xiodax not.
* %Adalwolfa forces a half smile at his words. Then remebrs something else she wanted to state. " Well,Xio may I say something and you not take offence of it ? " She inquired thinking of the young females the pack had in its rankings and the pups and such. Her thoughts always were the pack and their safety. She turend her head to face him head on searching his eyes for any sign of lies or falsness.
* Xiodax tilts his head thoughtfully, his ears pricking towards her. "Adal, you are an Elder of your pack. As such, you have earned the right to speak your mind for even Alphas to listen," he stated bluntly once more. "However, I can not make any promises that what you say may or may not offend me, though I will not react to you in such a way that I would act towards my own pack, because you
* Xiodax are not mine in that sense. Know that I will listen and ponder what ever you may say." Really though, what else could the Alpha male of Lunakai say in response? If someone like Wreyn or Azzrael said something with the intent to possibly offend, he'd bite them and remind them of their place. Adal, however, was an Elder in her own pack and had earned the right to speak her mind for others to
* Xiodax listen to her advice. The advice of Elders was not always a pleasant thing, but it was something that must be listened to. Xiodax was not a hotheaded male; he was diplomatic and intelligent, with enough aggression tossed in to lead. He would incline his head towards her again, offering her encouragement to speak her mind.
* %Adalwolfa inhaled deeply and in the sweetest tone her old throat could muster she spoke calmly " There are many a young female in this pack including the Alpha's offspring and my own adoptive daughter. I do not think you would do such nor am I stating that that any of your members would either. Though if any get the idea as to harm or touch any of the females here in any way less the acceptable for a male to interact with a female then I wont just talk. I may be six years of age and not up to par with the others in their prime but I will defend any of this pack with my life. " She smiled kindly letting him know this was just her words not a threat or anything just her talking befroe going on to say " That goes for the males that call Kladd home too these wolves are the only family I have and will protect them under any circumstances. Forgive me for being I bit daft I guess you would say for not fully trusting you just yet." She finished and against her inner will lowered herself to a submitting posture shoeing the male the respect on should show a alpha regardless of pack or accidental desrtuction of another packs home.
* Xiodax would listen intently to what the Elder had to say and he could not help a brief chuckle of amusement. Adal was quite the fiesty and proud Elder, make no mistake on that. She could threaten you but say it in such a way as though it seemed she was trying to offer a sweet treat of some sort. "I will keep that in mind, Adal. I beg your pardon, but I think I shall rest for the night. It
* Xiodax was a pleasure meeting you." He would get to his midnight paws and chuff softly to her in a friendly tone, showing that he appreciated her sign of respect. He would have moved closer to accept it, but he did not feel that she would be comfortable with that. He would then turn and pad off, his ears and nostrils intent. He noticed Nao moving towards the clearing at top speed, but the male was
* Xiodax already intent on seeking his rest. He was confident that Adalwolfa would be able to take care of herself.
