PACK HUNT: Thanks for Taking the Bait

Thanks for the participation! I'll be awarding EXP shortly!

The herd was separated. Now all they had to do was harass their mark until it gave up and gave in. Iqniq and Arverk were hot on its heels, nipping, biting and nudging while the rest of their party continued to drive the herd further apart before circling back. The two wolves gave chase and soon enough everyone else joined them. They had this. It was just a matter of time.

Nanuk returned. She signaled to Kapvik, asking him to join her in the line of the buffalo's path so it might be met with a wall of teeth and falter. He didn't; choosing to focus on a flesh wound instead. Shit. Nanuk was up there by herself and unless something changed, she'd likely get trampled. Putting on a burst of speed, Iqniq moved to join her. Together, they were enough to dissuade the buffalo and slow her enough to trap them beneath all of their wolven company.

They all launched their assault, catching the buffalo between them as it slowed to a halt and began to give fight. They widened their circle, working together to time a series of blows that would eventually begin to tire out the beast. And then it was over. The killing blows were landed and the creature fell. Victory was theirs. Time to eat.

"Good work. Leave the liver..." he reminded them, determined to save that choice morsel for his mate as it was her favorite. The rest was fair game. They dined and when all had eaten their fill they broke the body down into transportable portions. Taking the rest of it him, they refilled their stores and Iqniq saw to it personally that his mate received her portion of their prize.
