Yellow orbs scanned the forrest around Nazihm, taking in the serene abode before him with keen eyes that refused to miss a single detail.He searched long and hard from his perch high on the branch of a smooth bark tree for a fleck of yellow pelt rushing through the underbrush, scenting for the strong unmistakable musk that met his own in similar par.With a silent sigh, the male untensed his coiled muscles and slipped from his stand to the forest floor, landing gracefully on his feet.He had been watching from that spot for a few hours, now he simply had to move, otherwise his muscles might just freeze, leaving him there like a statue.Perhaps there was a village nearby, or maybe a town if he was lucky, that he could find food and lodgings in.After all, evening was passing fast and the male would rather not have to deal with the creatures who might inhabit the forest at night.With slow, elegant movements the jaguar made his way through the thick underbrush, ocassionally giving tenative sniffs here and there to make sure he wasn't trespassing on any clan's claim.
OOC: I know it's short, but I'll get into longer posts.I'm just very awkward at starting roleplays. o3o

The golden yellow eyes almost pierced the shadow that covered them. The wolf was not hunting, nor did he have any reason to be hiding, he simply liked the seclusion. It was one of those nights, the kind of night where he would relax and listen to the sounds of the fall of evening. Chirping crickets, flutter of birds overhead, and the quiet tapping of a nearby squirrel. He smiled, Yes, he thought, It is one of those nights. he closed his eyes, letting the sounds of the world around him drown out whatever worries he previously had. As he slowly lay back, about daze off as his mind normally did when he wasn't doing anything, he heard a noise, a very faint, different noise. "Hm?" he said, it was more of a soft grunt, from him having to pull his body back up from mid-motion. He reached for his dagger, because as peaceful as this forest was, there were occasionally travelling ruffians that like to cause trouble. "Anyone there?" he asked, voice calm but body tense, ready for whatever may come next.

Nazihm nearly jumped out of his skin at the sudden sound of a voice, his hand immediately flying to the hilt of his sword mounted across his lower back.The jaguar cautiously sniffed the air, scenting out another male, though this one wasn't the feline scent he'd become accustomed to smelling.It was an arid smell that reminded him of a dog he once encountered, though the one from back then had been a female and had the sweetest of scents, almost like lavender mixed with vanilla.Slowly, Nazihm made his way towards the voice, stopping to gaze at the male before him and decide whether he was a friend or foe.Upon noticing that the other seemed just as weary as he was, the cat removed his hand from the hilt of his blade and let it fall to his side in a non threatening manner,"I am just passing through.I mean no harm here."His voice was calm and low, almost ringing with a gentle accent that Nazihm himself had never really noticed nor paid any attention to.As he calmly looked the wolf in the eyes, a thought hit the male.Perhaps this wolf was a local in these lands and could direct the jaguar in the right direction, or at least let him know if there were any of his kind in this forest."Do you know of any jaguars in these lands?I'm in search of others like me," he spoke in his colorful tone, his voice still just above a whisper as his ears twitched towards the other, the beads hanging from each rattling lightly.

The wolf stopped, and he relaxed and sheathed the dagger, sighing in relief. This feline seemed more battle-ready than he was. The feline himself made the wolf curious. He didn't act hostile, and he certainly didn't look hostile. He took a moment to examine the feline. He seemed strong, and agile, though he expected such from felines, he always found it amazing how capable they were at leaping through trees and brush. "Sorry for startling you..." he said, trying to mask his curiosity, "I was resting here. Almost didn't hear you." he said, with a hint of a smile, "Not very often do I meet someone who can avoid my notice."
He thought about the Jaguar's question, and he thought aloud, "Jaguar... Hm..." he flicked his ears and suddenly looked up, "Actually, a group passed through a couple days ago, didn't get to talk to them much... They were in a hurry." he pointed towards the north-west, "That way, it's a tedious path, I only travel it once in a while." he looked up, "It's probably a bit late to travel now, though." he noted, before looking at Nazihm, "I'm Halcyon, by the way."

As the other pointed off towards the north-west, Nazihm cocked his head in the same direction, his ears perked as if straining to listen for them at such a far distance.So, he had missed them by a couple of days then.He had been so damn close, if only he knew these lands better.Perhaps then he would be able to catch up with them instead of repeatedly becoming lost.The jaguar's ear twitched as the other gave his name, though the cat's eyes were focused longingly on the path traveled by his kind as he spoke softly,"Nazihm.Could you take me through those lands?I must find them."Slowly, Nazihm tore his eyes from the long deserted path and looked at the wolf once more, his tail curling around to his side."Please, I would be most greatful if you would help me find them.I will pay you as well," he said, knowing that most creatures only gave such services at a price.Though Nazihm hoped his price wasn't too high, seeing as he really only had money for food and rent if he were going to stay at an inn.

Halcyon watched Nazihm's expression as he gazed toward the abandoned path, he felt a bit sad for the feline. He must really want to be with his people... he thought, looking down, and he didn't blame him. Being on one's lonesome was hard on the heart and mind of one's self. When Nazihm asked him to be a guide, Halcyon looked up at him and smiled, "Of course I can, of course I'm nowhere near as fast as a Jaguar." he told him, and when he heard of pay, Halcyon dismissed it, "Keep your money, I make my living on hunting." he said, and his smile grew, "When do you want to depart, Nazihm?" he asked. His tail swayed eagerly, he was very curious to know more of this feline. He reached down and picked up the bow and quiver he used to hunt, and shouldered them, "I'm ready when you are." he said, giving him a friendly smile.

Halcyon nodded, "Alright, we'll wait till dawn." he said, noticing that the jaguar seemed to regret the decision. Motioned with his hand to follow, "Come, I'll take us to a local village. They're a welcoming village, as long as you don't cause trouble. We can stay at the inn." he started to walk towards the village, towards the north. His tail swayed as he walked, and he seemed alert, yet at ease. He turned to Nazihm, "Mind telling me about yourself? I'm curious." he said, finally letting his curiosity win. He adjusted the quiver, so it wasn't swinging around on his back.

The wolf's ears flattened as he listened, and a sad expression crossed his face, "Oh god... I'm so sorry. I had no idea..." he trailed off into silence. He knew better than to question him about such a horrific thing. He felt terrible having brought it up. "Sorry..." he murmured once more. His ears perked back up after being asked about his life. Not very many people ask... he thought, looking up at Nazihm, "I suppose it all goes back to my parents. They were warriors, and I was expected to follow in their footsteps, so I was trained to be a warrior. Fierce, deadly." he sighed, "But I am not a warrior. Not at heart, anyway. I like peace, tranquility." He looked away, "They weren't too happy with me. The the pack leader, the alpha, he wasn't the kindest wolf. Nor was he merciful... I was banished, to say the least. So now I roam freely." Halcyon spread his arms, as if to take in the very essence of the forest around him, "Able to meditate and live peacefully, without ridicule from my former tribe-mates." he smiled again, "Perhaps it's for the best, Destiny has a strange way of making things work. Maybe I am not destined to live alone forever." he sighed again, this time happily.

Halcyon smiled at his optimistic words, "Let us hope so, my friend." he said, and he looked back down the road to see that they were only just beyond the village entrance, some villagers were still outside doing various chores, "I'll get you some food once we buy a room." he told Nazihm, as they entered and made their way to the inn, a few wary eyes turned to watch them. But they soon went back to their evening chores "It's a nice cozy place." Halcyon said, describing the Inn, "Warm beds and good food." he chuckled, and he waved his tail, starting to show his own weariness. It was a long day, and Halcyon knew they'd have quite a journey ahead of them starting tomorrow morning. He smiled, he couldn't wait.
