It was a lot to take in admittedly, and the mouse found herself speechless as she drank down the soft wine of words and subtle customs that were steadily becoming her own -- their own, the ways of all village Moonglow. The traditions of her own land had never been quite so elaborate but the yearling could find a measure of respect for the northron through her culture -- it seemed a great sacrifice to make for the happiness of your people which only served to cement the herdstalker's loyalty to the moonwife further.
