Stone Circle Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

@Louis Forward dating for ~ midish-June so keeping things vague and making lots of assumptions loool I will fix it up if anything needs updating <33

The highlands and the wolves who take up residence here have more than they could want or need. Cold weather had seen Kvarsheim numbers dwindle. Now they run strong, keeping their hunting fields milled, digging many dens out for the influx of new affiliates, reinforcing their alliances with Riverclan and the creek wolves with acts of goodwill. The alphas are expecting their litter any week now and the excitement of new life is tangible in the heavy breeze that stirs the pack. They are all healthy. Gunnar and Taktuq seem to be in good spirits. Skáld is nearly one.

She’s been thinking less and less about home. A full year has passed since she’s seen her siblings. Even when she closes her eyes, the faces conjured are blurred at the edges and losing their shape in her memory. Growing a little more fuzzy with every recall.

But she envisions them now as her paws bring her to the countryside on the Northern cusp of Kvarsheim to stand bathed in muted dusky light from the sky that stretches endlessly in every direction. She thinks of her mom, dad, aunt, her brothers, sisters and cousins. Of everyone who's been lost to distance and time. She does not regret leaving, nor her life here in Kvarshiem. Yet still there is that unexplainable numbness of wondering what your life could have looked like if you’d chosen differently.
