Camps packed up. Packs departed. Dutch held Valiant for a long moment to breathe in his scent, and pressed his nose briefly to the crown of @Minnow's head. But then they were off, and soon enough, the panther stood with @Sulukinak and @Towhee Jr in the flattened, snowy plains.
He had searched the camps twice over for cloudwoman and nanuq. But the pair were gone, departed without a word. Dutch had not the strength of will to try and follow their trail. If they were not waiting there upon the glacier when arrived —
The panther did not yet allow himself to feel anger.
"Come," he said to the shadow girl and silent warrior, tracing his words in ptero for the latter. "It is time we go home."

Let me know if any of this isn't ok!
