While she could tell that his common tongue was not as rehearsed as her own, she could understand him fine. Listening carefully, her smile showed her genuine interest. "You as well," she murmured with a dip of her own chin in his direction. It was nice to get away from the reality of life for the time being. To be enveloped in a small bubble with this other wolf was exactly what she needed. Feeling more relaxed than she had been in days, her mind wandered for a moment before being pulled back into the words he spoke. As he explained that he had traveled with family for an adventure, her smile broke out a little wider. That indeed sounded like a good time. Not that she really remembered having any siblings at all, but she did have cousins she used to play with. Her eyes followed down to the dust that had settled over the boulder. Watching him draw a circle with arrows to explain the unity of his family, she nodded in understanding. "I understand. If one goes away, the circle is weak. If you all move together, the circle is stronger," Celeste looks up to him with a smile in return. His next question sours her smile slightly. Faltering slightly, she looks away toward the deepening shadows. "I came here alone, yes. I have met many others here so far, but no one that is quite family," her voice is soft as she replies before looking back toward him. "I am strong though and can keep myself safe," she reassures him with a shrug of her shoulders before looking back to the circle he'd drawn in the dust. Would her own still be strong if someone had come with her? |
