Stone Circle Sing, sweet Nightingale

@Kiran Other tags for visibility. Feel free to make a cameo if your wolf would howl back!

Steph strolled through the edge of the forest, pausing as she looked out onto the plains. Snow still lightly blanketed the ground, but in the coming weeks, warmth would melt it, and new life would begin to emerge. Her gaze fell upon the stones that stood in a circle, and she made her way to Keoni's grave.

It had been a little while since she had cried from the loss of her sister. Her conversations these days were mostly about what was happening in the pack. She tried to keep it light. If what @Sunny said was true, that they could be somewhere, looking over them, then Keoni already knew what was going on. Still, it felt good to feel like she was here.

She sat down on her haunches, and told Keoni about how @Valette had a new mate in @Stark, and they were trying for pups, and how grateful she was to have had Keoni teach her how to be a good big sister. She told her how she thought @Nikai was crazy to go off on his adventure partially healed, but she hoped he was doing okay. She didn't mention how sad it was going to be, not having her here for all the good times to come. 

When she was finished, she walked to the tallest of the stones, Steady's stone. She hadn't known the male, and had just recently become aware of who he was. She introduced herself to him, and thanked him for making her mother so happy. 

When she was finished, she sat back on her haunches in the middle of the circle, and howled her happiness to the rest of the pack. The collar was off, her mom was happy, @Clary was back and safe, and there were only good things to look forward this spring. When her song trailed off, she sat in contented silence.
