So there were three different places that @Manon has been to and Aphrodite had been to nearly all of them within her time being her. Ears twisted on top of her head as Aphrodite would glance around the Glade they were in before landing back on the woman before her. There was a question that hung between them both and Aphrodite would nod towards the Peak nearby. I've been up to the top of the mountain, it overlooks the valley. She had been able to figure out where each pride was at, even if it wasn't the exact location it was the general area. That's a smart move.

as morana turns her head to gesture towards the peak, manon's eyes also follow with interest, eyeing the high peak that towers over much of the valley. even from the far side of the bluffs, the imposing peak could be seen clearly on most days. as long as it wasn't terribly overcast, at least. "you zhink eet a good vantage point, zhen?" she questions absently, attention turning again to aphrodite with interest. there were still several hours left in the day and if manon camped at the base of the peak for a night, she could easily summit and be back at wolfbron before evening tomorrow. "per'aps i shall go zhere now." manon suggests, brow raised in anticipation of the stranger's response.

@Manon turned her gaze towards the Peak just as Aphrodite had done before bringing it back to her. Ears twisted as violet jewels slid from the peak itself and back to the woman she was speaking with. When I was up that it seemed like it. I could see majority if not all of Amaryllis up there and sort of map out where I wanted to go and explore. And she had, among other things. But that wasn't information that needed to be shared, and information that hadn't be sought out either. Instead the subject stayed on the peak and how Manon seemed to want to go there now. A shrug escaped across her shoulders as Aphrodite would nod from her position. I see no reason to waste time here if it's exploring you're wanting to do, plus I've got some exploring of my own to do. She would admit, half truth half lie. So until next time Manon, safe travels. She would dip her head before heading in a direction that was not the Cove but the opposite. Away from any prides and further into neutral territory.

though manon’s eyes remained trained on the tip of that imposing peak, she eventually tears her gaze away to rest it on @Aphrodite as the woman speaks. “yes, zhis seems like a good plan.” she agrees with a thoughtful hum. getting an idea of where all the prides were laid out was sure to come in handy later, though manon had already explored many of them under the guise of attending challenges called out for them. it seems morana agrees with her plan and manon allows for the briefest smile to be flashed in her direction. “very well.” she responds curtly as morana makes a move to leave further into the neutral territories. “you az well, morana.” it seems these will be their parting words as manon lingers just long enough to watch the other woman disappear amongst the grasses. once more, ruby eyes turn to stare at the peak. letting out a long sigh, she starts down a path that would lead her along wolfbron’s borders towards the higher mountains towards the north of the valley.
