She gets a gleam in her eyes, one of interest and sadness, and looks at the tree.
She walks over to it, looking for a name.

-
[i]There were tens of names, too many to count. Stripes. One of the names that was there, sounded rather odd for a person [/i]
-
Her ears flicked as she saw it. She used to know a werecat named Stripe. She continued looking, wondering if her brother's name was on the tree.
-
[i]Athos, Portos.[/i] "Any thing specific you're looking for little lady?"
-
"Kari.." she said a little quietly. (Mari is a purebred werefox. But "little lady" works for her i guess. I think)
-
"Karishad? Is that who? Im hoping I have his name right. You must be... His sister?"
-
She nods. "Karishad...His name on t-tree?" she asked, her voice shaky and rough.
-
"Everyone's name is on the tree." [b]He got to his feet, walking around it [/b] "It's on this side."
-
She followed him gingerly, looking for his name.
-
[b]He placed his finger on the tree trunk. And sure enough, the name was there [/b] [i]Karishad[/i] "Like i said. We all wind up here at some point."
-
She knelt by it, running her small hand over it. She found comfort in knowing it was there, something to remember Kari by.
-
"A grim reminder if anything..."
-
She shrugged, happy to see there was something for others to remember Kari by. Quincy had never managed to find out what Ian did with Kari's body, and Kari had nothing except for Mari.
