Ouroboros Spine New beginnings

For some reason, the name of Elenwë's daughter stumbles to her lips and she has to choke the shape of it back down, the only visible sign of this misstep being the heavy bob of her throat as she swallows thickly. "Lótë," the dove imparts, proud that the words do not flinch with falsehood. "Just Lótë." 

The mouse could not have said for sure how long they sat and chatted while the painter anticipated one of her superiors' arrival. When at last it came to pass that she realized no one would be drawing from the blackpine anytime soon, her sprucegreen gaze flitted with restless indecision -- lips pursing into a thin line as she thought. At last, her spring gems lifted to Valerius again and she gave a beckoning gesture of her head as she stood. 

"If you would come with me. I will take you to the Moon and the Star. Or perhaps the one our wisewoman calls first hunter -- he is something like leader to our men," the girl explained as she moved to escort him over their borders and deeper into the heart of Ouroboros. Still, she was cautious to share too much and named none of the wolves she had spoken of. 

She would bring him to the ulaq and see if the two who headed the circle of women in their village would allow the man to stake his own dwelling in the upper ring of the Spine. Perhaps he would join the circle of hunters and the numbers of those who would seek Kukutux's aide in finding a mate.

so sorry for the wait on this, I took a break for a min due to some medical concerns but I'm back now. @Kukutux and @Sialuk I figure behind the scenes she can bring Valerius to the ulaq and they would decide from there if he was accepted or not? If you guys were wanting to do a thread though just PM me and I'll get something posted.
