Silver Lake
A mountain river flows into a large, stunning lake. The waters reflect silver in the day and under moonlight. A plain of gentle hills and forests surround the lake. Herds of elk are native here.

He took note of the young wolf who heeded the call. They didn't seem immediately aggressive, and chose to watch and wait in silence. Matthias figured he probably had some secret power in his fur that would make the distance between them negligent. Then he thought of his own power, the ability to wield charges and lightning. It made him feel safer than he probably ought to.

Turning back to the winged wolf, Matthias would nod in resignation upon hearing the comments about how he was just watching, "Yeah, that's pretty fair," but it was always good to test the security of another domain. Imagine Matthias chose to live here, chose to place Roxanne's safety under their care - how could she be safe, if they don't check their borders often enough?

Being up in the trees when you're half hooves and no talons is a difficult feet. He's starting to regret being up here, and tries convincing himself that having the high ground is worth it. Meanwhile, the winged wolf speaks of Duskorna, and of a Goddess named Tsillah, a goddess of death and rebirth. Ordinarily, Matthias would turn away immediately - a cult? Who worships the Goddess of death? But time has shown him that making such a heavy decision about where to live comes with some sacrifices. And hey, maybe he's just jumping to conclusions. Certainly they don't, like, sacrifice people and stuff right?

"Could you tell me more about Tsillah? What makes her the Goddess of death and rebirth?" and then, after that question, "I'd like to know about Duskorna's culture. What your group values, what codes you live by. It's important I find a place that doesn't conflict with my own," in actuality, the very core of most groups conflicted with his own self-centered desires, but where was he going to find another group like that one band of rogues he used to ride with?
