Rising Sun Valley discovery · sunbeam lair

“Sun Lair just doesn’t have a very good ring to it,” she replied, unsatisfied with that particular name. “Sunshine Lair?” she tested on the air, not quite liking that one either. “Sunstream?” She huffed, moving away from the light for a moment and into the darkness. When she looked back, the name hit her like a ton of bricks. “Sunbeam Lair,” she stated with contentment in her voice. “That’s what we can call it.” Briefly, she wondered why they were so obsessive on giving things names. They named birds, themselves, trees, flowers, mountains, forests, and apparently lairs as well. Perhaps it just made things easier to reference.

Refocusing her attention on Njal, she addressed him more directly. “Did you follow me here?” she asked. Fox had not asked him to come along, and she wondered if he had simply stumbled across the lair as she had. Or perhaps he had been looking for her to speak about something in particular. Whatever the reason, she was glad he had shown up. While she still lacked trust in him, as long as he remained a valuable asset to the pack, he would regain it in time.
