Mavikan falters slightly, watching the irritated tigress with wary eyes for a moment before she speaks. It wouldn't do anyone any good to make enemies here, so she'll be careful; both tigers seem rather short-tempered. {There are some...small caves nearby. They're not far, in a sort of hollow that's heated by some hot springs. We use them during the winter.} Immediately after speaking, the wolf's claws dig into the soil at the realization of what she's just done. It's their only real refuge, and she doesn't know what will become of them should the tigers take over the place and refuse to let them in. She just as well lead them directly into their stronghold. She continues, though, as the tension eases out of her a bit. The tigers and their kittens deserve a safe, warm place as much as they do, after all... {It should be warm enough for him....there's plenty of game there, too. We can show you...}

While a bit less wary of the wolves than Indira, Neicolas still doesn't trust them. Where he's from they're considered nothing but scavengers and competition for their food; there's a heavy division between the tigers' and the wolves' territories, but he can remember crossing the borders to steal from the wolves, who are pretty dumb in his mind. His ears perk as the female speaks, though; the place sounds safe, and must be if the patrolmen they've heard of haven't found it yet. Humans have a way of exploiting places like that, he knows. It sounds like the perfect place to take Andras, but he's still a bit wary of the pair's motives. He remains silent, though; it's not really his decision here, it's Indira's. It sounds all right to him, but it's best to leave it to the mother, as he's learned.
