＆ Ｂｉｔ Ｊｏｆｆｒｅｙ

                    SO OFTEN these days she heard the HOWLING OF WOLVES. the others were afraid of it; and she pretended like she was too. but that wasn’t true. it made her feel STRONG, somehow. but when she heard them padding their way out of the trees to where she’d gone to fetch water, she was unsure. there were more WOLVES than she’d seen at one time, even in the GODSWOOD; all hungry and closing in. but when she saw their LEADER her HEART SKIPPED——   she knew those markings!   any other wolf and it might have been hard to tell, but she was HUGE, easily Arya’s height even as the girl slowly got to her feet. she did not RUN. why should she?

                    ‘  ——NYMERIA?  ‘   the name escaped her lips like a ghost.

The wolf's ears moved as she spoke, head tilting to the side slightly as her tailed started swaying faster. A soft bark escaped the wolf as she walked closer to the girl, the scent getting stronger in her nostrils. It was HER, it was her human pup. After all this time, they'd found each other again.
