Phoenix Maplewood got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home

Rae was coming to the rescue. She'd headed into the Maplewood to hunt for more supplies to bring to @Pema (She had been bringing Everything that looked useful, from mouse bones and dead grasshoppers to more useful things like blackberry leaves and slippery elm bark. Useful or not, it was being left just inside the entrance of Pema's den.), but when the scent of blood and emotional distress reached her nares, the budding healer apprentice took it on herself to go an investigate.

The male looked like Sunny or perhaps his father from behind, but Skrae knew by his scent that it was the other one, the brother she'd yet to meet. Well, no time but the present! With a low swinging tail and a hopeful little boof, she crawled up beside him and attempted to insinuate herself into his personal space to initiate a cuddle.
