Ariadne found the image Dutch created in her mind to be picturesque, and she wondered why he left until he disclosed two important details—his relation to the mountainwomen and a wanderlust that couldn't go ignored.
Ah—I can understand all of that. My legs grew weary, too, when I was younger. I traveled for some time before returning home.She allowed him to get close, as she was interested in the scents upon his fur. She sniffed, taking in the fading smells of juniper, fir, pine, and the other smells he'd accumulated on his travels. It was intoxicating, and she lingered as she answered his question.
I was born not too far from here, in a village named Moonglow. My parents, sunman and moonwoman, lead the village.She looked across the fields that separated their territories and motioned to the quarry that loomed in the distance.
There it is, not even a day's travel away. It is peaceful, and an ideal place to live, and the people are peaceful and kind, but I wanted a place of my own—just as my other sistraas did. There are now four moonvillages in total.
Right next to it is another village—village Moonspear, lead by my sistraa, Sialuk and then ... the last village,this was always the hardest for her to explain, but it was getting easier with time,
Then there is one last village by the ocean—Moontide, currently led by my late sistraa's husband.She frowned and shook her head; Samani was taken from them too soon.
