If stubbornness was a trait to base a relationship on, Bazi and Scimitar were well matched. She did not acknowledge his arrival, forcing herself to maintain eyes on the herd - even though, at this point, her anger had dwindled enough to consider exchanging formalities. But she wasn't going to be the one to break first - oh no.

Silent as a ghost, Bazi surged forward, rounding the herd to the left. The group was blocked to the east by a crescent of forest, and there was no straight line of escape that was not guarded by a wolf.
