He chose is words carefully, Ktulu noticed, as he spoke of finding someone to bear the burden of the herd with her. He was right in his observation that the Grey had become too comfortable in the Foothills. It made her skin twitch just thinking about how lazy they had all gotten. The warriors weren't sparring, the spies weren't spying (if they were it wasn't that often.) Everything he was saying was right and she knew it but she didn't feel like even being bothered with it. Perhaps she was taking her sister leaving harder than she'd previously let herself believe. She needed a good kick in the ass to get herself started once more and get back to where she had been before.

Ktulu eyed Apollo carefully as he continued on saying that the spies should go on and survey the land. Her ears pricked forward, however, when he said the herd could be ripped from their grasp just as they had ripped it from Jackal's. Her teeth ground against one another and she got a hard look in her eyes as she thought about it. Maybe that was the reminder that she needed. Being a leader took a delicate balance and her selfishly wallowing in her own pity over Ophelia leaving upset that balance. She could already feel the herd slipping away from her.

"Well." The Constrictor said as she began to walk again, still considering Apollo's words. "I suppose you had better begin thinking about how you're going to help restore the balance in your position as Chief." Her gaze drifted up to the sky as she walked before falling back to the once medic. The decision had come quickly on her part, but he was the only one who approached her about his concerns and he seemed to be the only one who seemed to share the concerns she had. More importantly, he didn't make her want to put a hoof through his skull. She could talk to him and he seemed to understand her body language at least a little bit.

They could work together, couldn't they?
