Emberwood with all your lies,

so sorry for the wait !! ;; & thank you <3

the dancing one was a smart girl, to know that in which she explained, as she knew well that the herd would be tired from their travels! though older, wiser, nanuralaaq kept her mouth shut, listening with wide, pale eyes and ears that would flick every so often. her tail, too, gave a wave that spoke of a quiet praise. of course, i will join you.

polar bear woman, she was called, and so it felt like much mightier a name than mere polar bear cub. nanookarnaq, she may have been called, and for a moment she felt though this hunt may be blessed by this girl who radiated light. i trust you to lead the way, my girl. show me what you have learnt while i have been away, and though there is a smile upon her face as she speaks, there is something deeper ; a test, of sorts. a trust. a sense of knowing, for this girl holds more knowledge than she realises.

nanuralaaq can see it ; dancing within her, as is her namesake.

go forth, dancing one. i will be your shadow.
