~Mika, upriver from Natalia and Dethean~<br/><br/>Mika's ears were laying flat, her head lowering. She didn't know if she had alerted something around her just yet. When a howl came from the general direction, her ears perked once more. Wolves. The scents in the area must have been messing with her senses then, because she was sure she smelled something other than wolf ahead. She shook her head momentarily.<em>You're loosing it, Mika...</em>She could swear she smelled the aroma of fresh baked bread, though, and spices of stew. Human food, which she had once indulged in long ago.<br/><br/>Hearing the second call of the wolf, this time an alert to others around, she took a few cautious steps forward.<em>A call?</em>She tried to fight the temptation, but couldn't and quickly sprang into a trot, picking up speed into a sprint in the direction of the scents and sounds. Should she be wary of these strangers? How would a wolf have human food? It no longer mattered, as she was close enough to be scented by wolves, even being upwind. Her speed slowed to a crawl, approaching cautiously.
