Larksong Grotto for the time is near

ill leave it up to you if contact is made! <3

vuk found she had grown more comfortable around the wolves of reek's home, and ventured from the grotto when seff was asleep with increasing frequency. the stretch of barren brown still jolted the girl; she longed for the greenery to return, and ever-present was the looming dog's-head threat of starvation if the famine continued much longer.

she dozed idly that day, seff curled against her, but the turquoise eyes opened at the tread of another. it was not reek, nor terich -- the three adults and the babe were the only ones currently allowed in the grotto. hackles prickled; vuk lifted herself clear of the slumbering pup and stalked toward the flicker of a shadow in the darkness, fangs lifted.

she did not know this wolfess, and the scent of larksong was light upon her! the patchwork wolfess did not take a moment's hesitation but lunged with maternal fear and rage toward the interloper who dared stray too close to seff's nest, jaws parted to wound and to drive away.
