Njord chuckled at Meerkat’s euphemism and passed her a feisty look as if to say anytime.

But then, an idea struck him. “An ulaq…” he repeated as if testing the word in their new homeland. It was a northern phrase, and the man wondered if there was a synonym more aligned with their low-land territory. “We could call it a taigh,” Njord floated the idea past Meerkat as he trotted beside her. “Tis a simple word for a cottage,” he explained. “Though sometimes, a dweller comes up with a more descriptive name for their home… like Bonn na Cnoc meanin’ ‘at the foot of tha hill’.”

Then, they came upon it. They shared the same mind, for it did resemble their ulaq on Moonspear. Though the species was different, Njord would be smitten to live beneath a grand tree and her roots because it evoked many happy memories.

“Tis Bonnie, mo chridhe,” Njord whispered, astounded. He moved closer to investigate the gentle, well-worn curves of the den entrance. It was clear that had been a beloved home for many generations. “Who lived here before us?” he asked.
