Nova Peak merrily, merrily, merilly, merilly.

As she digged, Whittier watched. She glanced at him once while she worked and saw his head tilt to the side, curious. She smiled and after she was done, waited to see what he would do. Instead of buying the bone, Whit climbed into the hole himself, turned around a few times, and laid down.

Kaskara laughed. It wasn't her normal chuckle wither, but a deep belly laugh that left tears in her eyes. "Very good, Whit!" Her heart raced at his cleverness and she smiled at him. There was never a dull moment with him around. After a moment, she turned and grabbed the bone, placing it in the hole with him. Then she began, in a very silly manner, to fling dirt all over it and the boy. After the bone was mostly covered, and Whittier was coated in bits of dirt, she proclaimed, "Now it is done! Time for a nap." Then, without further ado, she turned and began a slow walk away, one ear flicked back to listen for her nephew.
