Northstar Vale when my time comes

It wasn't too long before a figure appeared, approaching with a smile. It was Mouse, tail aloft in greeting. Miyako gave him a warm grin in return. He seemed in good shape, although his movements seemed a little stiff--whether from injury or just warming up for the day, she didn't know.

"Mouse! Hi," she said as he came to a halt before her. He looked genuinely happy to see her, which was good. He came alone, and she wondered whether any of the other Vale wolves would follow shortly after him.

"Uh, yeah," she continued, in response to his question, "I suppose I am up for that tour. And to stay, I think," Miyako added, her eyes exploring the vast valley beneath them. "Boy, you weren't kidding. This place is gorgeous."
