Wapun Meadow Child's play

She nodded at Jace's observation, not going into the details of Jinx and his past just yet. That could wait. Whatever happened could serve to help her later, how she did not know, but it could.

The black male told her about his past, though sparingly. He mentioned something about questing to earn his last name, a tradition in his pack. For males only it seemed. Why females couldn't get the chance to get their own name was apparent to her; a female gains her mate's name when they came together, at least in some cultures.

The priestess wondered if he earned his name yet, but he asked why she was so far from Silvertip first. "Looking for herbs not found in the territory. There are many in this meadow for instance, I wish to stock up for a while." She looked about at the abundance of flora in this valley. "So, Jace. Do you think you have earned your last name yet?" she inquired.
