Mitso

You make your way through a narrow path between craggy stones, when you hear a rustling from above you. You freeze and look up, just in time to see a wolf leap from the bushes to one side. However, he barely misses the other side, scrambling for a second on the edge of the far side, before falling down in front of you. 

"Oh! Hello there! Y. . . you saw that, huh?" He said, somewhat embarrassed, before rolling over and shaking the dust off.

"Let's try that again. Hey there. I'm Mitso. A totally cool, capable, and athletic wolf that just happened to jump down here in a normal, yet impressive manner. Welcome to Clockwork Territory. Pleasure to see visitors." Mitso does his best appear cool and collected, but only manages to hold it for a second before breaking into a wide grin and giggling.

"Ah, yeah, I don't think I could fool anyone with that. It is nice to meet you though. Have you met any of my other packmates? My hunt-mates should be close by." He pauses to sniff the air, and then tenses up with a slight look of panic. 

"That's right! I'm supposed to be finding prey scents!" He said, hopping forwards a few steps before turning back to look at you. "You're welcome to come with, as long as you don't get in the way of my super sniffing." He says with a good-natured smile.

The two of you walk together, occasionally pausing to let Mitso sniff the air. 

"It shouldn't take too long for me to pick up a scent." Mitso said, falling silent for a moment. "That's what like best about this place. I mean, my pack mates are great too, but, well. . . I was in a pack before this. A pretty long ways away, not that it matters. My last pack had to dissolve, and go their separate ways. There simply wasn't enough food in the territory we were in, but the alpha was stubborn, it was the land that belonged to the pack, had been their land for generations. He couldn't abandoned it. But we were all starving, so we did what we had to." 

Mitso stops and smells the area, but his gaze is deep and far off. "I wonder what became of him. . ."

Mitso shook his head and continued walking, shrugging it off. "But well, the rest of us weren't really fit to lead, and there was a lot of bicker amongst us for a while as we tried to find somewhere new. Here and there one or two wolves would split off, and, so . . . One time I decided I would be better off finding a new pack on my own. And Here I am." Mitso stopped again, his attention suddenly focused on something else. After a moment, you smell it as well. 

"Well, looks like its time to send out the signal. I gotta get on this, but hopefully we run into each other again afterwards!" Mitso said with a wink, before howling to signal his hunt-mates and bounding off in the direction of the scent. Left by yourself, you continue on your way once more.
