The summit welcomed her, and Wayfarer was spurred by new appreciation when at last she crested the Sunspire and saw it reach into the clouds beyond. She quickened her stride despite the ache in travel-worn joints, eager to close the distance and embrace the changes with rare optimism.
As the girl neared, it became clear that she was not alone. Others had found their way to their new mountain home and Wayfarer noted pawprints in the snow. Issorartuyok, surely, with his longer stride and determination; was that a whiff of @Veteran she detected on the breeze?
She twitched an ear forward at the Alpha's call and sent up her voice in response, announcing her approach to comrades. When at last Wayfarer found the silver-kissed leader she went to him with a low-wagging tail and a rare glint of excitement in her amber eye as she reached to mouth respectfully at the furs of his throat.

"After all we've been through, everything I've done,
it can't all be for nothing."
