Stone Circle Ashes

Nyra jumped a little as the boy's paws hit the soil in front of her. Slowly, her own tail started to wag, and she smiled again "West Tyree, huh? A noble name, for a noble youngster like yourself. I bet you'll be even stronger than your dad when you're full grown." The white woman kept her belly on the ground, but looked up at him unlike before, watching excitement peek out of his guarded response to her approach. 
"Honestly, I'm not familiar with these lands. It's such a large place.... I don't even know any other outsiders, as you call us!" Nyra chuckled softly, slowly pulling herself into a sitting position after a few more moments. 
"Thank you for not attacking me, and thank you again for calling your parents to see if I'm worthy of joining your family." She bowed her head again, this time with gratitude instead of apologetics.
