<div class="floatleft">(http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc415/TheValkryrieJessica/wolf/Astrid.png)</div><strong>Character name</strong>: Astrid<br/><strong>Who:</strong>Open, Mentions Zhergan(though not by name)<br/><strong>Where:</strong>Alpha Hut<br/><strong>When: </strong>Evening<br/><hr/><br/>As the room became more tense Astrid pursed her lips and wrinkled her nose. She needed to get up, to do something, to meet someone. Brushing off her clothing as she stood, Astrid made her way over to the food and drink. Looking around at the table for a few moments, she finally decided she would just have a drink and perhaps a piece of fruit. Picking up the fruit and putting it to her lips she took a bite. It tasted so good, and she was rather hungry, so that made it taste all the more better. As she wondered the room she made sure to keep her eye on the crowd of people that were interacting, they weren't who she was looking for though. She was trying to find the wise elder who'd pointed her out earlier in the day. Astrid didn't know why, but she'd wanted to speak to him since seeing him that morning.<br/><br/>Finally finding a spot to stand and watch the festivities Astrid stood still. She honestly didn't care who came up and talked to her, she just wanted someone to talk to. To feel more like part of the pack. As she stood there with her drink eating her piece of fruit stood tall. She didn't want to seem needy, so she made sure she carried herself with the confidence that had always carried her far in her former life. She noticed the Alpha leave the building and sighed. Astrid had come here in search of something more, and had thought she'd found it. Here though, in front of all these other people, Astrid found herself questioning that fact. She knew that being a sacrifice was to be something special, she just couldn't see it. She felt alone for the first time in her life, and it scared her.
