Nova Peak pringoals

Was it something in the water that made the females of the wilds so irritable? Shiv not-so fondly recalled her meeting with the grey-furred woman at the Plateau, who had turned the tables on the magpie and had the gall to attack her. Meanwhile, males such as the talkative pup Charon and the cheery male Fleetscut had been much more amicable. Or perhaps the stranger was just upset because she had gained some very much unwanted winter weight.

Shiv returned a challenging glance back down to the female, humming for a moment as if in debate before tapping the branch she was on with her beak. She was fine right here, thank you. "Wolf would eat Shiv," she commented with a nod — she had prior experience with females like this one. Though, the other wolf hadn't been carrying eggs. Whether that made her more likely to attack her than the Plateau girl Shiv did not know. "And wolf has had enough to eat, yes." She just couldn't resist poking fun at her oversized middle.
