Phoenix Maplewood death of a naturalist

For the Naturalist trade! Anyone that knows a bit about the world. I'm skipping past the 'spot and introduce' bit of the thread - ideally someone Sesi hasn't met. :D

To distract herself from the newness of the Maplewood, Sesi had begun to keep track of things that transcended her location within the wilds. She quickly realized that the moon went through phases, and had thus far guestimated that autumn occupied between two and three cycles. The word 'winter' had been bandied about by the adults, and she understood from the chatter that it was a time of scarcity. This scared the young girl - enough to drive her out of solitude to seek answers from the nearest adult.

She had hesitantly introduced herself as Sesi, Scarlett's daughter to the first wolf that crossed her path. She stood there awkwardly as the time meant for pleasantries passed them by, ears pinned back and eyes hopping between a dozen points. Every inch of her exuded discomfort and worry. Eventually, she went for it, speaking in a voice that was high-pitched and a little too loud. "Where does the prey go when it gets cold?"
