Astrid eventually found the Luna outside sitting on one of the seats in the mating ring, she slowly walked up to her and respectfully greeted her with a bow.
"Can I sit right next to you, Mother?"She requested if she could sit next to her on the other vacant seat.
"Of course, you can, Astrid, come sit with me." The Luna tapped the seat next to her twice and welcomed Astrid to sit on it.
"Thank you, Mother" Astrid settled on the seat offered to her. They weren't meant to sit here due to it being strictly reserved and used only during mating ceremonies. However, the Luna was the authority here herself so it wasn't going to create a problem for her.
"Astrid, Did you know my man and I were the first people to use this place for our mating ceremony, and we wanted to make it sacred that no one else would use it? But we might have figured out it's only right that we let you guys use it for reasons best known to us only"
