Sawtooth Spire don't disturb the beast

With a fierce snarl, Nanuk squared off to the bear, teeth displayed in threat as Echelon darted in. With Iqniq at the coywolf's side, she turned to assist Aariak pull the moose away. With even just two of them working together, the carcass would be moved much more quickly; two wolves could pull more than one could and three, even more. With the more than capable pair keeping the ursine busy, she, Aariak and Kapvik could take care of the moose.

Turning to do this, the Beta watched in mute astonishment as the Delta tore into the carcass there on the spot. At first, she admittedly thought that he was taking the time to eat, which she had a mind to kill him for. In the next moment, she stood corrected; he was trying to cart off the moose's large organs one by one. In theory, it was good, but in the heat of the moment, it was not as timely as just carting off the whole damn thing, especially since only one organ could fit in their jaws at a time.

Moving closer with quick steps, Kroc barked an order to them. "No time. Pull the carcass." Her words were gruff, and her intentions clear. With winter coming, they needed to stock up as much as possible, not pick piece-meal items. "If the three of us work together, it'll be quick." Why the dark wolf hadn't simply helped Aariak, she wasn't sure, but she didn't deign to know his thoughts either. Her goal was to help the whole pack thrive and while Tonravik and her pups were important, so was the rest of the pack; without food, they'd have no strength to protect them.
