Mari seamlessly joined the royal family as they made their way through town. It was a beautiful day, and her red golden tail swished behind her, the color looking like it was sparking in the light. Her ears were perked and alert, as always, as well as her eyes scanning the crowd, searching for any threats, scanning each face for signs of anger or agitation directed at the family. They may be wolves, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't harm the royal family for various reasons.
At the mentioned of nearby humans, Mari stiffened, and found her hands straying to her weapons. Her palms started twitching, heating up, preparing to send an arc of electricity towards anybody who dared to come near the Princess and her family. Carefully, she eased closer to Princess Hinata. In the event of an attack, she would be in position to better protect the small girl, whether it be jumping in front of an attack, or dragging her to safety. Mari doubted the humans would get much closer, but the fact that they had been spotted at all made her uneasy. The younger generations were growing curious, and it was unsure whether they harbored the same hostility as their parents and grandparents.
Mari took a steadying breath. They were not in town. The humans were at least three to four miles away, and the guards responsible for securing the town's borders would most likely dispatch them before they could reach the royal family. Mari relaxed, but her wariness remained, visible in her twitching ears. She was wound like a tight coil, ready to spring at any moment. Nobody was touching the Princess, and if they did, they were going to lose a few fingers, Mari would make sure of it.
