Redtail Rise mountains that are stacked with fear

Ashlar couldn't help but argue, though he reddened immediately after. Every place is worth knowing. He hoped that wasn't insulting. He liked hearing about distant places, even if they were boring. His parents' pack was quiet and small and, even with that, one of his favorite places to sing about.

It sounds... uh, interesting. Like you've done and seen a lot. He added a little haltingly, shy but wanting to encourage. He wanted to hear more if Ratio was willing to share.

I'm from a forest far away. Kinda far. Mama's family lives there, some of them, and papa is a healer. He helped me to learn when we were there, after we left the Bear. Ashlar watched Ratio, suddenly curious if he'd heard of the other pack. How many knew of the bear king? There isn't any war there. I never knew what it was, before I met Avicus. She was opposite of anything he had known to this point, but they were still friends. Proof that it was possible to accept things you did not necessarily understand.
