Stone Circle Unleash your heart and soul

She made it easy for him to keep close, for which he was grateful. The longer they walked, the more comfortable he became with the change, the nervous tension slowly easing from his muscles as he began to see that maybe this wasn't so bad. It wasn't something he would do on his own for a long time, but he felt safe enough with Valette that he was willing to give exploring another chance as long as she was there. 

Kallik was completely focused on her, so when she began to slow, he did as well, looking up to her curiously to see why. He picked up the scent of something interesting, but he wasn't quite sure what it was. She told him they had to be quieter, and he nodded, careful to keep his steps light and his breathing easy. Valette crouched down, motioning for him to come sit between her front legs, and Kallik silently trotted forward and planted himself in front of her. Motion caught his eye as soon as he was settled, and he looked in front of them to see tiny creatures scurrying about. Some appeared and disappeared through small openings in the ground. Some nibbled on leafy greens. None of them seemed to register their presence, at least not for now. His gaze was glued to them as they moved, the urge to chase surprising him. He ignored it, though, far too insecure about everything just yet and perfectly content to sit close to Valette and just watch. 

When she whispered that they were called rabbits, he peered up at her with a small frown and nodded slightly. Then he settled his gaze back on the busy creatures and watched them go about their day. He wondered what they were doing. They all seemed to move about so quickly, that he was curious how the adults even caught one—questions that would go unasked for now.
