Stone Circle This wolf

He shook his head abruptly- of course, he knew that Bjarna was older. But the fact that he had two other littermates was very surprising to him, given how little he could recall from his earliest days. His family had always been quite small, though it saddened him to know that it could have been larger, if only his siblings had stayed. He wished for Bjarna to return, and Sanja as well; of his earliest family, only Gunnar now remained at Kvarsheim. 

He tried to muster up a grateful smile for Inkeri, though it saddened him still to know he was missing more family than he'd originally expected. "Maybe they will come back someday," He said wistfully. He looked to her, with doleful eyes. "You came back...I got lost, and came back," He said. If he could will it to happen, he would have done so already. 

"You will stay now, yes?" He asked, then. It seemed to be the nature of wolves to come and go- but it seemed to hurt more and more every time they did.
