Sequoia Coast it's a healer thing

Blue would do it all over again if she needed too, no matter if it hurt even. She would take Amelie and any other stray child that needed her, as far as she was concerned it didn’t matter about blood. Your blood could be the worst thing possible, but you could find the love you need in the heart of another. No matter what, even if she had her own children, Amelie would still be her daughter, the children would know her as their sister. She was adamant about this.

Blue watched as Amelie stared at the ocean. Watching it with wide and full eyes, blue chuckled when she got the answer from Amelie. It was noncommittal and rather quiet, but it was there. She knew she was just pleased with what she was seeing.

Blue smiled That is what you call a whale I think. It is a beastly creature, it could eat our entire pack! I don’t know if it would, but it could. She grew quiet then and smiled gently There are many dangers in the ocean and all of them are much bigger than us, there are even some dangerous beasts in the fresh water like rivers, and lakes and streams.
