Sun Mote Copse let the river run

Yeah, okay.  I guess mom told so many I forget not everyone does, she said a little sheepishly.  I could tell it if you want? Or I could wait and tell it to both of you and whoever else wanted to come! She could make a night of it.... stories and all.  Even invite a few of the other younger members of the pack.

If... if you wanted.  Oh boy.  It was weird... there was likely not a less intimidating wolf in existence in the wilds than Eljay, and yet, for some reason, Maia was intimidated.  She wasn't sure if it was his prior relationship with Wildfire, his parents, or his status in the pack.... but for some reason something felt different than previous times they'd spoken.  Maybe they were all just growing up.
