Stone Circle We were right 'til we weren't

Arlette felt the disappointment but tried to not let it show. She gave a soft nod in acknowledgement. Though then her spirits lifted. "Taktuq?! That could be my cousin!" That had to be, at least... There were only so many that were called that way. She would have the chance to maybe see her if she would stay here, but she wasn't sure if she could.

"Perhaps soon. I might travel over the mountain range first to pay my respects to someone," she explained. "I... I might not be able to join your pack. This is the place I was born and where my mother ruled. My customs and habits might be very different from yours and I don't want to be disrespectful to your rules," she admitted.

Arlette then paused. "The stones--- I. The stone circle? It was sacred for us as a pack. Does it have special meaning to you?" Maybe she shouldn't say anything but it also felt weird another wolf pack was living on these lands and they didn't know about the wolves buried there in that circle.
