Blacktail Deer Plateau No, I can't look down

@Junior I'll still be busy this week and next but my phone's decided to start cooperating for posts after I factory reset it, and I had a good idea for starting this.

Two nights and a day went by before Saēna returned to the plateau from the east. She hadn't realized how far out she'd gone until the return journey, which seemed to take many hours longer than the initial one had. She was already forgetting how the bleak volcano looked and her initial thought that it was a sucky home was nowhere to be found. Instead, she focused on Fox and what an absolute bore she was.

Her thoughts lingered on Fox even as she automatically followed a worn path through the forest in the direction of the old rendezvous site. She searched for any new reason to hate on the red-furred woman with her siblings but came up blank until, with a slight gasp, she remembered an extremely important thing. Peregrine had said she was severely hurt. Saēna's repressed memory of her foster father's explanation rose back up and she recalled him saying Fox depended on him... But Fox had been walking around just fine.

Her gut roiled as she paused. Had Peregrine... lied to them? Deciding that this new gossip was too important to wait, Saēna tilted back her head and summoned her siblings, eager for more shit-talking and especially eager to know how they reacted.
