Ataxia took a moment to consider her answer. "The place with the rocks sticking out of the water?" Perhaps the formations themselves be fascinating enough that Ataxia would not be tempted to pick every shell she saw. Besides, she could think of no other interesting place that was close to the ruins; at least, not a place that she hadn't already been today while shell-hunting. "This a-way." The Seculi wolf wagged her tail, then went north in the direction of Borgata Tecolotl.
"How do your children protest while they are still in your belly?" While Ataxia had seen her mother pregnant once before, she hadn't yet heard of the concept of a pup kicking while still inside the mother. "Momo-" she started to mention the name of the coyote god, then stopped herself. "The gods must have blessed your children if you can hear them while they're still inside. I bet they'll be smart." The hybrid half-grinned, and wondered what it would be like to see the children of her baby-sitter running about.
