After the Volcan Wolves offered their respects and gratitude, the mother wolves went up to their cubs and groomed them by licking off the residual blood and dirt.
Awroo! Awr, awr, awroo!
Shortly after, the leader of Volcan Wolves communicated with its pack before one of the adult Volcan Wolves that was previously poisoned approached Vaan's group.
Awr!
The wolf barked once and spun around before moving over to the water stream. There, it sat down with its tail wagging, seemingly waiting for them to follow them.
"It seems like we just got a guide," Vaan commented with a slight smile.
"A guide, huh? I suppose it can help us avoid monsters and beasts with its keen sense of smell. Though, I'm not sure how useful that will be since we'll be following the water stream anyway," Astoria voiced her opinion.
"Of course, if we want to investigate the source of the water stream contamination, then I think the Volcan Wolf will be very useful."
