Moonspear i can't remember when i felt so free

Wolves were not made to live on mountains, said Arcturus, which Dragomir thought was a weird thing for a mountain-dwelling wolf to reveal. It made sense; Dragomir was largely at ease on the mountain ridges only because he, too, was born on a mountain, but the sight of sheer cliffs always made his stomach do flips. Sometimes even running down the more treacherous paths was enough to make his mouth dry. As for hunting... he was unlikely to ever target a bighorn if he could help it, if only because they frequented even more precarious ground than a wolf should dare.

Why do we live on a mountain, then? he asked, and although he didn't mean to be cheeky about it, he couldn't stop a rueful grin from sneaking across his face at the end.
