Blacktail Deer Plateau backseat freestyle

The last of the stragglers arrived, much of the hunting party here sans Moonstone and Kieran, and all of the new members. She surveyed the group confidently, mind working, until her father turned to her warmly and she felt a touch of panic. She would lead them, alone, and would bear the responsibility if the hunt went aray, if they failed. She floundered a moment, but pushed the feeling away vehemently, recognizing it was being a toxic one. She took a quick breath to calm her nerves, before standing and addressing the wolves before her. "Pema, Grayday and I found the deer a while ago, so we knew that they frequent this area; there is a small group a little west of here" She began, growing more confident as she spoke, words beginning to flow smoother. The hills and valleys housed multiple areas that the deer liked to rest for the night, and there ought to be a herd near one of the most popular areas, near which they gathered now. "The herds seem healthy, but haven't been hunted for a while, it seems, since we've noticed a few older, weaker does among them. We'll be able to pick them out, and if we get the herd on the move, we can separate a couple  from the rest and ambush them." The plan formed clearly in her mind, now, and she was glad for the warm support of her father, a smile coming to her maw as she surveyed the wolves. She would have liked to have Kieran here; they had hunted deer together before and she knew he would have been able to head a small group well.

Her gaze fastened a moment longer on those she did not know personally, guessing at their strengths. After a moments consideration she continued, words confident, now.  "I'll lead a group - Pema, Adi, and Starbelly -to separate the weak from the herd and get them running." She has hunted with Pema before and knew her well, Aditya would make a fleet runner, she thought, and Starbelly was filled with a kind of excitable energy that caught Dawn's eye. She considers Mirabelle, but her gaze flickers to her injured limb and supposes that she ought to be better in the ambush party. "D- Grayday can lead Coq, Mirabelle and Sylvas in ambushing the doe or two after we have it cut off from the herd. My party will drive them towards them." She didn't phrase the dangers of the hunt, for everyone assembled ought to know that hooves were sharp and a buck could turn dangerous. She glanced around those assembled, making sure no one refuted her plan outright, hoping she had made the right call in their strategy. Uncertain that all would be content in her plan, she asked: "Is that alright with everyone?"  No experience in leading group hunts made her unsure, and open to what other might have to say. Should no one raise a complaint or query, she would lead them westward and break off into groups, preparing for the hunt.
