Dragoncrest Cliffs Wild things

Between her chronic sleepiness and round belly—seriously, it had gotten enormous over these past few days—Wildfire sensed that her mobility was about to decrease drastically. She waddled out onto the beach, contemplating going to her mate's preferred spot. But all of her instincts commanded her to make an about-face, shuffling back through the caves to find an exit that let her out into the forest. She made a (very slow) beeline to the hollow redwood tree and sighed loudly in relief when she reached it.

She flopped unceremoniously to the soft earth just outside the little entrance, panting from the exertion of making her way here. Wildfire guessed her due date could not be more than a week or two away. She idly groomed her bulging abdomen, smiling when she felt the familiar stirring. The pups kicked most of the time lately. In fact, she was forced to push herself upright to pad behind the tree and take her nth leak of the day.

When the Bandrona finished, she rounded the tree again and ducked inside. She stretched out with a sigh, her joints slightly achy. She could hardly keep her eyes open. Wildfire hoped @Thuringwethil wouldn't mind that she had chosen the tree after all, because she was pretty sure she was officially stuck here until after she gave birth.
