Neverwinter Forest death and death

@lasher

The lumbering wolf moved once more from her territory. It was a brief scouting expedition, to see what lay outside. In this forest she had found Iqniq, and also, a herd of stray deer that grazed in the lush grasses protected from the sun by the canopy of evergreens. The herd was a large one and ought to be easy to find; readily, she stalked their tracks. But the wolf, not easily distracted, found her thoughts drifting to Taltos. She was guiltless in all she had done, as everything she had done was out of necessity; and as well as she could, she did love Tartok, for that was what she lived for. While she knew she could have done more to find those that had sworn fealty to her upon her return, she also understood she had been absent a long while. Her mother would have been content to upend their lives, to call them back to her. Tonravik had not even thought of this, had not tracked them down to find them.

Taltos reminded Tonravik that she ought to. If any were here, find them, bring them to her.

She paused in the wood, her sights falling onto the herd. They were aware of her presence, and bounded eastward... but all she needed to know was that they were there to know that she would bring them to where they belonged.
