Bitterroot Valley Out the window

Figured this was actually a good place to segue it. :)

The Bandrona didn't feel strongly opinionated about the matter, so when Freyja took a moment to consider it, then decided to pursue the trail, she simply nodded. She glanced over at Gavriel to be sure he'd heard the game plan, then refocused on the aspiring tracker.

"Take point," she invited, waiting for the girl to do so before falling into step at her shoulder. The scent trail was going to lead them south. "We'll have to set a pretty brisk pace to gain ground on the herd. Drop your nose about once a mile to make sure we're on the right track. We'll see more signs of their passage and glean more details the closer we get," she repeated what she'd already said.

With a final and eager, "Let's go," the party of three began traipsing across the valley in the direction of the neighboring cuesta.
