It seemed that Kira had gotten her used to being with other lupine, and even though she was far from being a nosy being, she was noise and life all of her own, and she had become a constant to the white wolf. She had changed the albino's perspective, somewhat.

Io was tempted to simply fall back into silence after that, but he looked as if he was curious and she knew that feeling because she felt the same. "It shines brightest under moonlight." She said, speaking of the lake but not motioning toward it. Her mind worked strangely at times, because she had spent so much time alone.
"On silent nights, - you can nearly count the stars in it's reflection." The white woman's voice was a little more than a whisper, and her light airy voice could easily be made out with her sitting beside him.
