Lane joined Sakhmet and Kigipigak at the border with a spring in her step. Tuuluuwaq was home, her kids were home, Issorartuyok was home, and everything was right with the world. She knew there would be another emergency right around the corner (because there always was) but for now, she breathed a sigh of relief. 

"Hey, Sakhmet. Kigipigak." She looked between the two of them with a smile. Sakhmet was looking rather jolly around the middle. Good for her. Good for both of them.

"I never got the chance to say thank you for your help with scouting party, Kigipigak. I know Rivenwood really appreciated the help." She wagged her tail briefly, then she added, "Not many people would take a risk for nothing in return." Kigipigak was not part of a pack that was allied to Rivenwood, and yet he had eagerly helped anyway.
