Sawtooth Spire there goes rabbit, he choked

Iqniq grinned as he sat back and released the rabbit from beneath his heavy paw. Ping was excited, eager, and Iqniq was much the same way with his own curiosity. He didn't remember his first meal. He couldn't recall if dining on animals was instinct or something that had been taught. Nevertheless, he'd aid however he was needed, if he was needed. Ping was a sharp one. Chances were good he'd figure it out on his own.

Fox-boy went first for the tail and discovered very quickly that was not the right choice. Iqniq shook his head, confirming that that wasn't quite the right spot for eating. Ping tried again. This time with the ears. A curious choice, but he supposed it was just another place on the rabbit's body that was enticing. Again, Iqniq shook his head. A third attempt and Ping found the soft underbelly. Success! He found his way inside the body and began to steal a few bites.

Iqniq nodded and wagged his tail a bit as Ping looked towards him. Yup. That was right. He gave a small woof of encouragement and bid the child to keep at it. He'd help only if the boy encountered more difficulties or if he began to over eat. Something had to be left over to share with his brothers.
