A warm wind blew through the new home of Stonehowl mountain coming from the nearby eastern coast. The wind carried with it the scene of sea salt and seaweed as it blew gently across Shadow’s face. His jet black hair, for which he was named, waved in the wind as he looked and smiled at Stream and Buren. “Nothing surprises me anymore,” he said feeling at peace.

Foxhair, like her mate, was named after the animal due to the orange-red color of her hair. Her green eyes resembled that of a clever fox as well. She was watching their cub, Snowspring who was only nine seasons in age; but as feisty as both of them put together and giving Windfetcher a run for who would be the next chief.

“Stream has come a long way,” Foxhair said, “as a healer. She’s mended many wounds and now…”

“She’s given birth to a half human, half elf cub,” Shadow said.

It was true; the child of Stream and the young human, Buren, had the stockier build of a human; but had the slanted eyes and pointed ears of an elf.

“It’s no stranger than the stories we’ve heard that there was a mating between an elf and a troll that bore a half-elf-troll,” Shadow shrugged.

“I wonder if Stonecutter will be able to use magic when he gets older,” Foxhair asked.

Stonecutter was now two years old and already crawling around everywhere. He was far more curious than elven cubs were and louder too; much, much louder. Stream had healed wounds and diseases all of her life; even bringing Elves together through Recognition; all the while her own heart ached for Recognition which seemed to elude her despite the numerous other tribes of Elves that Shadow had led them through the world to encounter – and it wasn’t until the human son of a wildly vicious tribe of North Men that Stream would find love – after he betrayed his own people after a vicious conflict with the elves of Stonehowl. He’d been young, barely a man by human standards, at the age of eighteen seasons when they had first embraced for a night of passion beneath the furs. That night triggered a hunger in Stream that she could not sedate, thirsting to be in Buren’s embrace more and more each night, hiding in her den with him, leaving the young human tired, but pleasantly so.

Now that she’d bore a child, that passionate hunger seemed to be quelled – most nights. But there were nights that Buren, who was now hunting with Foxhair, Spearclaw, and Snowcloud, that he knew that once their infant child was asleep; he would be at the mercy of Stream’s passions.

Snowspring, the cub of Shadow and Foxhair, who was now nine seasons old, sat between her parents and looked at them both staring at the small clearing where the others had gathered. “What are you looking at?” she asked, curiously.

“Our tribe,” Shadow smiled. There’d been no humans since the North Men had fled to dispute with. Everyone seemed to be doing well and enjoying their lives. Spearclaw, who had come from the Pridewalkers tribe and had been coupling with Vineweaver and Stillbreeze, now seemed to have moved into his own cave and was getting frequent visits from Windfetcher, who was now eighteen seasons old, and had bloomed in the last two years into a beautiful woman. She had shapely hips, robust breasts and back side, that made her visually appealing to behold. She knew she was beautiful with her long auburn hair whose curls bounced like the rest of her body when she walked. Shadow suspected that Windfetcher had caught Spearclaw’s eye, and that’s why he’d moved out, because it would have been awkward laying with her mother, then her daughter. But if there was one thing that Shadow learned about the Pridewalkers was that they laid with any elf, once old enough. There was no lack of time when it came to the Pridewalkers.

Since growing up to be more woman, Windfetcher seemed to care less and less about being the next Chieftess, and more about exploring her body and rolling in the furs, which is what Shadow suspected, Spearclaw provided. This did nothing to Vineweaver and Stillbreeze, who had been Recognized mates for a long time, and the parents of Echo and Windfetcher. If anything, perhaps due to the time they shared with Spearclaw, they knew what he was like and trusted him with their daughter; or simply knew that Windfetcher, though she cared little now for being Chieftess, was still very capiable of taking care of herself and could put Spearclaw in his place if she needed to.

Snowcloud, who also one of the Pridewalkers that had followed Shadow was different; she was more quiet, reserved. She and the reclusive Echo seemed to be getting on more now that he had also turned eighteen seasons of age; though their relationship seemed to be more about him talking to her about the magic of the world; while she shared with him the long history of the Pridewalkers – the two of them developing what seemed to be a platonic relationship.
