Stone Circle Droplets of yes and no, in an ocean of maybe

Since her talk with Valette, Steph had done her best to live up to what her mother wanted. No, that wasn't right. It wasn't what her mother wanted. It was what Steph wanted. To follow in her mother's footsteps and become a leader. Steph was unsure if she had what it takes to do that, but if she didn't give it her best, she'd never know. She'd rather try and fail than to never try at all.

So, early this morning she had set out to patrol the borders. Her nose was to the ground and her ears were perked as she looked for any signs that something was amiss. So far, she didn't find any indication that anyone had been nearby that shouldn't have been. She paused in her patrol to look out over Wapun meadow. She could see movement on the ground, but it was mostly likely the rabbits or gophers that lived there.
