Greatwater Lake spice and wolf

It was becoming a pattern: Wildfire would disappear for a day, then return to the caldera for a little while, only to set out again within the week. Mostly, she went off alone, despite Fox's warnings. Today, however, she decided to drag @Raven along with her. Her sister was reluctant, up until Wildfire reminded her of all the new and interesting plants she might find out there. Then Raven was nearly as eager as her to get away from home!

They wandered around for a while before Wildfire decided to take her taller sibling to Greatwater Lake, to show her the incredible views. Each time she had come here in the past, she had run into someone, so the dhole lookalike expected much of the same today. She wasn't disappointed. Not only was there a strange wolf there, he happened to be stalking a herd of six elk.

"Let's stay back," the youthful Outrider muttered to Raven, leading her to the shore furthest from both hunter and hunted.
