Moonspear The change

Sialuk nodded.

Yes, there is some on the top of Moonspear all year round, even when it is very warm down lower. The mountain was formidable in height, and while the snow that littered the top in the summer was different than the snow now, it was still there. In her mother's language, there were many different words for each type, but Sialuk did not know each and every one.

Elke admitted to not having met her other cousins, which was unfortunate, but not terribly surprising, especially if she had only been here a short while. In fact, the second mention of Nova Peak rang a bell regarding another young pup she had met not that long ago.

Are you Ciri's sister? Sialuk asked. Wasn't that where Ciri had said she was from? Sialuk was fairly certain that was the case, but it seemed like asking was the right move, rather than assuming something she did not necessarily know. Ciri had seemed rather timid compared to Elke. Not only that, but she had seemed to think that Norah was somebody else entirely. And she had spoken in that strange language that Sialuk had been unable to comprehend. Maybe Elke spoke it as well. Sialuk wondered if learning it would be beneficial somehow. Adding another one to her tool belt didn't seem like a terrible idea.
