Quick reflexes had the other wolf staring at her in an instant. Enya's muscles tensed as a reaction, and yet she stayed and remained. A silence stretched between them and Enya began to wonder if the other was deciding how to handle the cards it had been dealt. There were many things to consider, after all. Whatever the other decided, it was not decided with the intention of aggression as the driving factor. She noticed the lips fall (how could she miss it, when she'd been staring at the mandibles that protruded from her face?) and the fire in her eyes dull. Dull, but not extinguish.
The silent was broken by words accompanied by a thick accent. Enya snorted at them in amusement. A bad week? Boy, could she understand. The stranger further humored her by answering her questions. She had began to wonder if she might not. She owed Enya nothing after all. When the stranger claimed that Enya would know if these lands belonged to her, she snorted with amusement again. She had zero doubt that the statement was true. With ease, the beast of a wolf lifted its bulk and pressed down on the fallen tree until it sounded a crack under her weight. A display of strength. It wasn't hard to imagine her squishing Enya as easily as she squished the log.
"Me?" she responded, buying time as she debated on giving the stranger the truth of her situation. "I'm taking some 'personal time' for myself" she answered, deciding that there was little harm in telling this stranger the truth. "Kingdom's orders" She curled her lips as she muttered the two words, showing her own distaste for her sentence, even if it was a self-induced one. "I'm from the east and figured I'd explore unknown lands if I can't make myself useful back at home." She cautiously stepped closer to the stranger, closing the gap so they wouldn't have to raise their voice to converse. She made a point, however, to remain a comfortable distance away - at least out of leaping range. "So, no, ain't got a clue what this area is called. I'd just call it the bluffs, though. If you aren't from around here, then where are you from?"
