Big Salmon Lake Mumbling To My Heart

Kivi trudged along after speaking with the wolves of the Spine. They were not very helpful, but that would not stop Kivi from hunting for the bison. Her muscles grew sore and her body began to shut down. She needed sleep, but it would put her in a vulnerable position without the safety of the Khalas.

After a few more minutes of walking, the wolfess found herself at a lake. Exhausted, Kivi forced herself to the edge of the lake, and bent down to get a drink hoping the cool and refreshing water would wake her up. Still feeling the effects of not resting for days, the female flopped down in the shallow part of the lake and let the water crash against the lower half of her body. Her head was a safe distance from the water, and after a breeze came by not revealing any scents, Kivi assumed no one was nearby and it was fine to take a quick nap. It was a dangerous place to sleep, but the wolfess was not thinking about that as her brain was not working at its full potential due to the lack of rest. For now Kivi peacefully drifted off to sleep not worried about what was going on around her.
