Wheeling Gull Isle Long Greetings

A blink and twitch along her spine at the news of Heda and Caracal then quiet yet sure words spoken suffused with a warm strength. "I'm sorry for your loss." It made sense that they would not go, especially if they were still mourning. It was not easy to set a time or distance on such a thing but she would take the news to @Rodyn so he might know that they would not come and also of Heda and Caracal and their children.

She felt the offer to stay was somewhat unexpected, at odds with the flat look of pain twisted into anger and then malice that she could see swirling in the eyes of this young wolf. But her reasons for declining the offer had nothing to do with her host and she shook her head. "Thank you for the offer, but I won't trespass on your hospitality." A tentative smile. But the light was beginning to come back to her eyes from Samani's passing and this did not dampen it.

There was little that she could do for them traveling light and with places to be, but she spoke firmly, turning her head to better show the direction of the plateau. "Moontide lies to the west of here on that plateau should Sweetharbor wish to call on our borders for trade or hunting or help or to meet."

Heph lingered a moment longer to catch her breath and watch the waves, but then she would depart, heading back to the mainland.
