Modesty listened to her boys with a smile on her face, nodding her head as Davey asked about the brightest star in the sky, "The North star, yes," Las was pointing in the right direction, but without sprawling out in the grass beside him it might be hard to tell which one he meant. Tide made mention of the shape of them and she hummed her agreement quietly, before Corsair cut in wanting to hear the story about the star bears... well, she supposed, they were all pretty closely related.

Reclining down into the grass, she tipped her muzzle towards the line of the three stars that were the easiest to spot of the big bear. She marked the approximate shape of the constellation in the dirt before her and gestured to each marking as she began the story. "A group of hungry hunters were chasing a bear through the forest when they ran into 3 giant dire wolves who attacked and killed all but three of the hunters. The gods of the time saw their pursuit and transported them to the sky to continue their hunt where they could continue to gaze on them for all time." She gestured to the front two stars. "The hunters chase the bear around the north star every night. If you can find the front of the bear, you can find the North star." She drew a line in the dirt from the front of the big dipper to the north star. "Think you can use the bear to find the star?"
