The scholar continued to impress! "Ah," said Dutch, "Ç'est pareil pour moi," and, "¿Hablas algo de español?"

Regardless,

"Most speak the common tongue, but not all," he replied, although he was sure Leith had deduced as much. "Many speak the sunshine language. None here, unfortunately, but you may find a tutor in one of the other moon villages. And the seal hunters have their own tongue — I am learning it slowly but surely from my hunt-brother in Moontide. And the sign language that silenthunter uses, of course."

He thought for a moment longer, but decided, "That is all I know of in these territories."

A smart fellow like Leith was a relief to have around. Dutch cared deeply for Sulukinak and Fallen Sun, but conversations never flowed this easily between them. It usually required much more scrutiny on the panther's part, and it was nice to walk and talk while taking in the scenery rather than the infinitesimal twitches of Sulukinak's features, beloved as they were.

"There is a medicine man at Moonspear," he said, just making conversation. How novel! "Alaric. A very wise and pleasant man. But here, we did not any healer until you came to us."
