She listened, nodding softly. While the sea had impressed her, and she had gone through a brief phase of almost-infatuation with the coastline (then the waterways that branched from them), the mountains had eventually summoned her back. The sea is impressive, but I will always prefer the mountains.
Something unsaid about them, and something she could never put into words, they would remain her preference for many, many moons.
Well, perhaps settling was not the best word.. adjusting? I know it is not quite like Ankyra here..
she rephrased and smirked, curious if his day-to-day routine was any different than it had been in Ankyra.. since fundamentally, a pack was a pack despite their bizarre beliefs. Obviously the scenery was different. To go from the coast itself to the mountain was a drastic difference. But she did know he spent a good share of time with Rain. Surely that differed from before, when he was pledged to the coastal wolves.
Then to his question, she answered easily. As a pack we established early in the summer,
she said. There was the vague chance to explain how it had not always been her mountain, nor was settling here necessarily of her choosing. While she was very fond of the mountain, perhaps it would have turned out differently. Then again, maybe not. I lived in the nearby region for about a year before that, and my home land is a mountain.. so I appreciate that they are not for the weak-willed.. or the clumsy-footed.
Even if she did not know how winter would handle here on this particular mountain. It was on her mind, though.
