Nimbus Summit Every lie was a beautiful sound.

tag for reference. Hela, feel free to start a thread for Tuulu/Issor, and Lane will join.

Lane and @Tuuluuwaq had only just arrived at the base of the mountain, delayed a few days by the several pit stops they had made. Lane's amber gaze skimmed the rising treeline as she craned her neck upward, surveying the lands that would become her new home. She was a leader on this soil, and yet she was setting foot upon the territory for the first time. When she spied her daughter's fiery pelt weaving through the sparse trees at the summit, her voice rose in an excited whine. 

She placed a quick kiss upon Tuuluuwaq's cheek. "Will you go find Issorartuyok, Tuulu? I'll join you shortly. We can talk to him about.." About all of it. The war, Laurel's request, but most of all about... "-the beta thing." Lane finished. She offered him a quick, parting smile, and then darted off to catch up with her daughter. 

Despite their difficult past, Lane had never given up on Wayfarer. She had never stopped offering her the opportunity to reconcile, and she never would. It had long since dawned upon Lane that she would likely lose Wayfarer when the girl came of age to disperse, but as long as Wayfarer remained here, Lane would keep trying with her.

"Wayfarer?" Lane barked eagerly, hoping to locate the girl. She lost sight of her daughter's pelt as she ascended the mountain. Lane figured that there was a very small chance that Wayfarer would hear her call and actually come to her (rather than run away from her), but it was worth a try. It would always be worth a try.
