Duck Lake Before I can live with folks, I have to live with myself.

Pesi's fixation made Uki reasonably defensive, and the wolfess stood over her prize. Go, Aqakuktuq ordered him, the command being something he recognized. She shook herself to get the meddlesome bird off of her, and he flew into a tree near the lake, now preoccupying himself with watching the noisy waterfowl go about their business. While the wraith found corvids' mischievous ways endearing, she understood that it could be difficult to tolerate for those lacking a connection to them.

Aqakuktuq turned her attention back to Uki as she said, "Fish can be difficult."

She nodded in agreement. Both fish and birds are masters in elements we can never be... but fish are my specialty. The fisherwoman said this wide great pride, though not in a boastful way.

Remembering they'd been standing here despite both having somewhere to be, she added, I don't want to keep you long, but I'm glad to have met you. Perhaps we could hunt together another time. Fisher gifted a small smile then.
