Swiftcurrent Creek In the back of my mind, I'm still overseas;

Arlette recognized the bittersweet tone, and perhaps even subconsciously the longing look coming from the female. Arlette had been there as well, in fact, when she came to Swiftcurrent she felt pretty much without purpose. She stepped forward. Life has not ended yet, she assured her and quirked up her lips. When I came here it was only because a daughter resided here. I would just strengthen and assist her with her pregnancy. If you would have told me then I would find love, and a home, and have another litter I would have laughed, she pressed. She wanted to give the female some hope. Sometimes life throws things at you, you don't expect. For her it had been the dynamic duo of Arric and Akavir that had made her feel valued and part of the pack. To then even find love in one of them.

I could show you the garden we have now?, she offered. There are some basics in there, she offered. She would start with plants. Perhaps you can tell me which one you can identify, she suggested. It would give her some knowledge on how much the female would know.
