Liliana was very nervous. She’d been told the night before there would be a ceremony at the end of the day, and she had to bring something white… she didn’t own anything that was white, she really didn’t own anything. The only thing she had was her mare, and even she was not an owned item. Liliana had brooded all night over it, and a good chunk of the day. The mare finally seemed to have decided for Liliana and she now had her white item in a pouch she’d borrowed from the stables. She didn’t think they would mind since she tended to them anyway. A few wolves were there already when she joined in, and found herself next to Nayati, only because she knew him and didn’t feel awkward standing near him. He’d shown her what to do before, and hoped he’d help. Even if he didn’t talk. She saw the leader of the pack, dressed in a ceremonial gown, she thought it was beautiful and he had made the effect well enough, he looked like a very proud wolf, a business wolf, who was there to celebrate the summer days. She wasn’t sure what to do, but she listened to him, every word. It was amazing, then they started to put the fire out, first Dawali did so and then the rest, Liliana followed suit, putting dirt carefully over the fire. She couldn’t help feel sad for it. The fire had been going for some time, and it was the same fire she’d joined the pack at. But as Dawali said all things must die. She didn’t speak a word but did what Nayati did, hoping he didn’t have some special part that no one else had, and if he did she hoped she’d see it before she made herself look like a fool.
