Stone Circle who am I to say

Taktuq wondered what it must have been like for Gunnar to be on his own for most of his life. Even though she had left Easthollow before she was even a yearling, she'd always had her aunt to watch over her, and later, Atautsikuk, and the different packs she had settled with in between. Wanderlust had taken her from place to place but had never left her on her own for very long. Always stolen by the want for others, for that longing to be useful to someone beyond herself.

I am glad you found Kvarsheim. This pack would not be the same without your wisdom to guide us, and she meant it, truly so - though she wondered aloud, what made you choose to wander alone for so many years? Was it hard becoming a wolf of the pack?

Would it be hard for her to give up her freedom to become a mother of many? She would not be able to travel as much, see as many things. She knew of the changes motherhood brought. Yet what was it that kept her from settling in the thought?
