Fendros looked back at Ahnasha rather blankly, not knowing exactly how to respond. It was enough concern that at least another of the pack was a Hircine devotee, though Fendros knew he should have expected as much. To think that everyone else presumably earned their place by Meesei's side by very evident means caused Fendros to perceive the others seeing him as a threat. At least, that's how he saw it through Ahnasha's words. [i]Perhaps the friendly veneer isn't so transparent,[/i] Fendros thought.

"I had been wondering about that myself, actually," Fendros admitted, scratching one shoulder to occupy himself, "perhaps I'll find out someday." [i]I'll find a big stag and try to talk to him like... that's right, Ahnasha did that,[/i] Fendros remembered, and suddenly his demeanour changed to coincidentally reflect Ahnasha's own curious look. "Ahnasha, Meesei told me you once spoke to Hircine directly when you were shown to the pack. Could you tell me more about that?"
