Sibelle's reassurance of not having have to share everything about herself made Maija appreciate her more. It was nice to have her sister-in-law share the same ethics in regards to personal information. If the golden wolf hadn't been like that, then they would have probably not had much to talk about shortly after meeting. Maija figured that the more you kept to yourself, the more that could be revealed later on. Bit by bit instead of all at once -- that was her way of thinking.
"Perhaps I will hear your story one day, Sibelle. When you are ready to share a bit of it in the future, I will be ready to listen." It was the first long confession Maija had given to someone outside of Taurig and Aoi, so it was a good sign she was opening up to the ones who were worth being close to. As they got closer to the where the land stretched out from the mountain path, Sibelle wanted to know about how Maija met her brother. Maija allowed a warm sparkle to appear in her eyes and she nodded softly. "Very well," she said, tail flicking behind her as they walked side by side. "I was living on the Tortugan lands without realizing it had been claimed. After getting back from a hunt, Taurig startled me. I was very defensive and he talked me down from tearing his throat out." Her eyes continued to sparkle and she continued in words as well. "He told me that he had recently taken over Tortuga and requested my presence as a hunter. I thought about it and accepted." She snuck a glance to Sibelle and softly added, "I didn't know what life would toss at me when I accepted his offer."
