When she neared the strange new woman, she hesitated for just a moment, looking her over. The woman dipped her head, and spoke in a funny way. Not weird, just new to her. Regal. 

“Hello!” Ahna exclaimed, all bright eyed and busy tailed. “That’s a pretty name!” Since it was a big name, she asked: “Can I just call you Ippik?”

When the Ippiksaut asked Ahna’s name, she eagerly replied: “I’m Ahna!” She moved closer to the woman, and splooted in front of the woman, with her back legs stretched out. 

Then came a flurry of questions: “Where are you from? Do you have a village too? Are there lots of wolves?”
