It was as her parents had always said, that your imprint was something special, magical even. She knew perhaps she did not fit with Alistair as her mother and father fit. The fastidious male and her were a lot different, but she knew fate knew what it was doing when she had met him in the valley all those years ago. Perhaps they were not as perfect as her parents had been, but they still gave each other things that the other didn’t have. The more serious male was great to go to for advice and help, then Moonstone felt she had been a perfect emotional source for him. She didn’t know that she made him feel things he didn’t know he had but, it certainly didn’t surprise her either. Moonstone was happy to have him as her soul, and really she never thought of any other male being able to compare to the relationship they had, even if they didn’t see each other all the time.

Really the pair of them worked, regardless of the distance, and now that she was back in Spirane really they weren’t that far apart since the Forest and the Mountain packs were neighbors and also now allies again. She couldn’t leave her family, even if it was for him, not again at least. They needed her here now more than ever with her aunt not doing well and Moonfeather now a little more absent than normal. They needed her new skills here at home, just as much as the leadership of Taviora needed him now. So it was hard, but it wasn’t at the same time, she didn’t yearn for them to change their ways, just accepted them as they were and enjoyed the time she got to spend with him.

His words were just about as flat as ever, but she could tell he was trying with his tones. SHe could feel it though, the feelings he had, and always she knew that why his voice was dull and toneless she still felt the feelings behind those words. She smiled even as they finally pulled away, so happy to have him here for a visit once more. Someday she would have to go to Taviora to see his home too. However she wanted to know if everything had gone well for him, tilting her head slightly while letting her bright lavender eyes set on him waiting for his short report.

”I knew you would!” Moonstone said gleefully, tail waving about through the air behind her. While she was probably the more calm of her litter mates, she still was quite energetic compared to most, especially Alistair, thanks to her parents. Though her features softened, grew more serious at his continuation a small ‘oh’ forming on her lips but nodding by the end of it, saying that Zelda would have to handle it from there.

She grinned and felt her face burn slightly, that had nothing to do with the cold as he spoke further though, saying that he didn’t want to talk about his work, but her, and to spend more time together. ”Oh! Well I have a long story to tell you! I have been doing a lot of things since you gave me advice!” She declared with a smile, looking rather proud of herself. ”I went to the freelands, and you would never guess what I found! A teacher! She was new to Moladion! So I helped her out and get used to the lands while she taught me about healing and herbs! We even delivered a litter of puppies in Spring!”

She was nearly bursting with excitement telling him her exploits, she had been wanting to tell him ever since she got back but she was never sure if it was a good time for the black and white male. ”So I did it! I learned to be a healer. Sometimes I still think I want to do more, but for now I think I am happy.” After all she had the true Mountainborn form. Strong, powerful, easy to walk the mountains or take the strongest challenger. She probably would make a fantastic leader if given a chance, but her cousin, Kalseru, has taken up her aunt’s position, and she was just as deserving if not more, than Moonstone ever could be. She was happy to follow her for now.
