Sequoia Coast Daughters of Sun & Moon

For @Kukutux, @Samani & @Kausiut.

 

The father would not bring his children near the salty waters. Not this time. He stops with them right before where the grasses of the coast line turned to sand, so that they may learn of beach slowly and to their own terms. Sand would be far different then the dark and rich earth in the forest and mountains. 

Look there, girls! He says with an excitement, pointing his ginger muzzle towards the open water, which rolled white foam onto the golden sands. The morning was new, the sunrise dancing on the waters, revealing what the darkness had formerly shadowed.
