Lore: Their was sand in between her toes. It was super uncomfortable. She hated the desert. Hated it. Sand, pointy stuff, and aggressive animals. No wolf would live here by choice. It was just no. In a tempt to escape the heat's rough outstretched claws, she proposed to Alpha Woolly. If she asked her nicely maybe she would let him become a traveler. She was right! She became a traveler. Her plan was to leave in 2 days.

Lore: Elke traveled for a long time, out of the desert, through forests, until she eventually came to a glowing strip of land. Curious, she followed it until she came across a clearing. There, she almost fell into a large ravine, branches stretching out from far below. Elke looked around in interest for a bit before noticing a blue and tan-colored wolf off hunting. As one of the party members spotted her, Elke watched as the wolf she had seen earlier approached her. She was blind. The wolf attempted to speak to Elke a few times, but after learning that she was deaf, she beckoned Elke to follow her. Elke was given food, shelter, and rest, something she needed after traveling a long way. She decided to stay for a few days, helping out where she could.

Lore: Elke spent a lovely time in the Riparian Woodlands for the Spring and into the Summer. Elke being he fist deaf wolf they've come across, she was pleasantly shocked at how easily all the members of such a large pack accepted her lack of hearing. Spending the majority of the time helping the very unique Herbalist out on his gathering runs, which gave lots of time to enjoy the many beautiful plants and water features of the land around the pack's territory. Her particular favorite being these lovely purple bush-trees. ♥

Lore: The Court of Howls had a whole area of their main den set up for traveling wolves. Elke couldn't believe her eyes when she was led there after her arrival. There were already two other travelers there, Nana and Morning Dew, who had just given birth to 4 lovely pups. Elke joined them, feeling a little left out when the other two females continued to speak to each other about this and that. It took them a while to notice that Elke couldn't hear them, but as soon as they understood it, Nana immediately jumped up and went retrieve a broken antler, nudging it towards Elke with a shy smile and then lying down next to her, their shoulders touching. Maybe they couldn't communicate with words, but Elke enjoyed their way of make her feel part of the group.

Lore:
With all of the strange and disastrous weather plaguing the land, Elke didn't need to hear the dreaded silence around her to feel the effects of the surrounding drought, even with the thick spring air. She walked weakly with her tongue hanging as she was heading for a large lake which was known to be in the taiga, waking tirelessly to reach it.
To her pleasure, the lake wasn't too far now, infact it was just beyond a small rocky valley hidden in spruce trees. When the scent of fresh water filled her senses, she trotted quickly to rest in the shallows, lapping as much water as she could.
She rested with her fur swaying in the water, and only opened her eyes to a sudden movement rippling past her. A dark grey she-wolf, stood before her with three young pups splashing in the water behind her.
"Are you a traveller here?" The she-wolf asked but to no answer.
Elke looked at her with tired eyes and Firiba knew this wolf had just escaped the drought which stayed behind her. Firiba rested her tail on the traveller's flank as she nudged her to follow.
"Come! I am a traveller as well, you will follow me and the Salmonstone's shall show you bounty!"
The she-wolf exclaimed excitedly as all three pups bounded to follow them. Elke could not understand what she was saying, but by the look on her muzzle there was something good to come.
They arrived with little travel, and Elke was welcomed into a small wooded den that was deep inside a col between two hills.
There, she would feast in peace, sheltered from the bewildered weather.

Lore: Elke was passing through the Prairie, when suddenly, the ground shook violently, embers spewing all around. What was going on? She looked around only to notice a volcano had erupted! She had ran past, which quickly tired her. But as soon as she was in the clear, she found a totally normal pool of water! She took large laps of it, it had taken away the dry feeling. As she stared longer into the water.. it seemed to, glow? Wait, was the water moving to? Is that a wolf?! She bounced up, quickly looking behind her but.. no one was there? She looked back to the water, its in there! Elke reached a paw in, but as the wolf grabbed it it pulled her in! Her ears and nose quickly filled with water as the wolf dragged her deeper and deeper. She begged for something to help her.
Soon, she woke up in a huge, glowy.. forest? The trees were beautiful, teal-glowing moss stained them. She looked down only to see she was also resting on some pink-glowing moss! Woah! What was this place? She turned, noticing a beautiful, purple pup! It motioned with its tail for her to follow, and she did quickly, maybe this pup knew their way around better? Soon they came to a stop at some sheltered dens, bright, colorful wolfs with weird markings and feautures coming out. The pup beckoned her on, and she followed.
" Hello, there. You are? " Said a greenish-yellow wolf, nodding. Elke had no response as she couldn't hear a thing the wolf said. Soon, she noticed that Elke couldn't hear her and just nodded, and took out a feather, ink, and home-made paper. On the paper was words in a weird language? Then.. the words shifted into ones she understood! It had said 'Welcome, traveler. Stay as long as needed.' She smiled to the wolf, nodding, and followed them to a beautiful purple cave with glowing vines hanging down and tons of different flowers, all of varying colors. She entered, resting when she noticed another... wolf creature? It handed her some.. bones. Ah, could've been worse!

Lore: Elke rather liked this pack, it felt cozy. They lived in caves in the buttes of the western prairie and had a lot of adopted puppies. During her stay the pack was preparing to move, she went with them but decided to leave the pack after they were settled. Why? Because they moved to the desert.

Lore: As Elke was walking through a thick forest with lots of flowers and soft sunlight shining through the tree tops, she felt as if she weren't alone. She stopped walking and looked around, her other four senses better than the average wolf due to being deaf. She could smell a lone she-wolf and soon spotted her hiding in the bushes. The old, dark wolf realized she's been spotted and came out from hiding.

"Who are you," the old she-wolf asked.

Elke simply pawed at her ears to let the she-wolf know she was deaf. The lone-she wolf perked her ears as she realized she was deaf. She walked towards Elke and gestured with her tail to follow her. Elke followed her into thick bushes that soon opened up to a huge clearing. Elke loved how beautiful and secretive the place was. As Elke looked around, still following close behind the she-wolf, she saw wolves smiling at her. Elke felt welcomed here.

The she-wolf led Elke to a stunning pink-red storm eyed wolf. There was something different about her though and Elke noticed right away. The pink-red wolf didn't hear her approaching. The old, dark she-wolf that Elke had been following moved towards the right, trying to walk into the pink-red wolfs' sight without startling her. She got her attention by waving a paw towards her. The pink-red wolf turned to look at the old purple wolf and smiled brightly. The old dark wolf smiled back and tilted her head towards Elke, who was standing some distance behind the pink-red wolf. The pink-red wolf looked back at Elke and smiled even brighter. She jumped up and ran towards her, wagging her tail as a way to say hello. Elke thought the pink-red wolf would try to say something, so she quickly signaled that she was deaf. The pink-red wolf froze for a second and then smiled even brighter than before. The pink-red wolf pawed at her ears, too.

She was also deaf.

—

Elke loved this place with all her heart; meeting a deaf lead wolf she can connect with and seeing all the pack members use deaf-friendly ways of getting everyone's attention like waving their paws within their sight or poking their shoulders. Nuwa, the leader of this deaf embracing pack, was a goddess that went deaf some years ago. Nuwa taught Elke some body signals that most deaf wolves used to communicate. Nuwa even taught Elke some sentences! Elke was amazed as she hadn't learned or been taught any of this and she found it somewhat easier to communicate with hearing wolves with this new language. Elke hung out a lot with Nuwa and started looking up to her as an older sister she never knew she wanted.

Lore: Elke had been walking a few days now and her sore paws were feeling the repercussions. As she lay near a stream resting her feet strange ripples in the waves drew her attention upstream. A little pup no more then a month was trapped in the currents and was struggle to stay afloat. Acting fast Elke ran across the rocks on the stream and snagged the puppy out of the water. Elke realized immediately the pup was albino, But while she checked the pup for injuries she was also shocked to find the pup was blind. concern grew and she began talking to the pup and the pup couldn't explain how she got lost, where she came from, and she had no name. Not knowing what to do, Elke carefully lead the pup upstream. The 2 wandered for a few days, and communication slowly became easier between them, Elke figured she was sadly abandoned for her mutation and disability and worried who could do such a thing. She decided she would take the pup she named Sibyl to the encave. In the night Elke was awoken by Sibyl in a frenzied state. Elke lead Sibyl towards what the pup was hearing and together they came across a search party for her. The wolves were overjoyed and explained their den was attacked and Sibyl got lost in the choas, they had been worried sick! They invited Elke to stay with them for a while as a thank you! So she did and greatly enjoyed her time with the pack, thanking them. After her long goodbye to Sibyl she was on her way!

Lore: Elke had been walking for a long time, so long in fact, that she was beginning to wonder if she would find anything at all! She'd been days without food and water, and it was beginning to wear her down to the bone. She let out a grown as she came to a dead stop- a desert lay ahead, dunes upon dunes, a huge mountain lay in the background, blocking the way out. Letting out a grumble, she started on, trying not to think too much about how irritating the sand was between her paw pads. Walking for what seemed like hours, she looked up to see a shadow- her eyebrows furrowed at the shape of it, confused by it. Looking up, she stared at the wolf who could be seen soaring in the sky. Landing on a rock a few few feet away, the wolf regarded her in a morbidly curious sort of way, before speaking up. "Sheriff Frostbite- state your business please." The blue and vanilla she-wolf puffed out her chest, looking down at Elke. Elke rolled her eyes at the wolf, before motioning to her ears. "Charades? Really? Well, I suppose I am good at them. Ears....big ears? No- OH. You're deaf." The she-wolf drew a paw over her face, clearly annoyed with herself for not having gotten it sooner. "You a traveler? We got another one of those back in town, come on, I'll show you." Frostbite motioned with her blue tail to follow. Eventually they made it through the desert, and up the mountain, no thanks to Frostbite helping her of course. As they walked into town, Frostbite lead her to a special abandoned human house for travelling wolves. She was welcomed by the whole town, and fed a huge horse, much to her excitement- and their surprise when she consumed half of it. Later they told stories in the town center around a small fire. There she met Vixi, another traveling wolf, and the two stayed there for a few days, before parting ways. For once, a not bad experience with the desert- but she was happy to be outta there though!

Lore: After arriving in Airn Aizle, Elke was greeted by an elderly Alpha known as Link. Thankfully he was known to be one of the smartest wolves around, and he found a way to communicate with Elke without having to speak. While staying with his pack, Elke struck up a close friendship with a few other travelling wolves. Dillinger and Fascienne were friendly and on their own unique journey's across the plains of Wolvden. Together they formed a small hunting team, and were taught to hunt with one of the packs expert hunters, Max. It didn't come without it's scars, though.

Lore
SpoilerShe arrived in the tribe's camp a bit winded as she followed behind a patrol that She spotted from afar. There were no other packs nearby where she was and many places she found weren't exactly safe to stay in.
The patrol really were quick and efficient. Though she was confused when the group she followed just vanished. Until she was slammed into the ground and some vines were lassoed on her being and rendering her immobile.
Okay so they don't appreciate stranglers following them, fair enough. She couldn't hear anything of what they were saying but it seems someone caught on to her not hearing them so she was allowed up. Of course it was a Herbalist that noticed as he tested to see if she could hear and nope. His lips moved to speak to a new wolf that approached.

While they spoke, she heard a voice in her head which made her flinch and look around a bit but finding nothing.
'Easy youngin'. I speak in yer mind so you can hear someone explain things to you better. You are in the Meteor tribe and the first whose ear do not work as theirs do. They aren't sure with how to handle you per say but i shall see if they'll be willing to learn a way to speak with you without words aside from body language.'
This voice was raspy, distorted and creepy yet she felt somewhat safe and that she could trust it oddly enough. It explained things to her while the tribe was meeting on what to do with her before a thick dark fog began showing up and the tribe members all looked a certain direction and a massive dark mass stood in the shadows. The eyes were bright and easily seen but not the overall form.
The members seemed to listen to the being before them before they looked to each other then back at the beast with a nod. Soon the Jarl came over and wrote in the air that showed an errie orange glow thus showing words she could read.
'Hello, I'm Jarl Shafron, sorry for the rough treatment but we still have habits of old from long before. We never met a wolf who cannot hear before so i hope you'll be paitent with us as Brunhild gave us pause. Simeon, our Healer wishes to learn from you more if you wouldn't mind, a good way to speak with those like you.
We hope you enjoy your stay and don't hesitate to let us know how to make your stay comfortable.'
=
Many Moons have passed to where Elke had forgotten how long she's stayed yet this tribe knew how to survive. Their ways could be harsh but it was fair as well as new to many.
Everyone was used to having one like Elke around though she found herself yearning for something as she watched a few members gain a rite of passage.
She wished to try after watching a high ranked male receive His earned rite. Shafron nodded to allow it.

She did well and the tribe welcomed her now and always as well as her kin, should she have pups. Now was time to go though. She didn't see the sad look on the Jarls face as she left with an escort. Hey guys! It's stella! Elke had been with me through November 27th-30th
