Great Bear Wilderness We get to carry each other

Burke was ready to step forward and instantly take control, or at least he wanted to. He was curious to see what had happened. It spiked his interest. He was not sure if that was the same for the female though. The large male turned to her when she asked him a question. Whales. Whales. He had heard about this before, long ago. He frowned as he recollected his memory. It had been in his time in the north, sometimes they would pass by the shore, massive fish.

Burke looked at her curiously, seeing that he had not thought about those whales-things in a long time. The male nodded. "Massive fish they are. They pass by the coast of where I was born," he spoke to her. "They do not live on land like the seals do," he commented, basically saying that it could not have been a whale.
