Serpent Lake when i die let the wolves enjoy my bones

The boy was, understandably, hesitant. He crept forward, and Alshain simply watched as the nervous fellow cast occasional glances his way until he was in reach of the carcass. Hunger won out, of course, and Alshain respectfully looked away towards a small group of crows that had settled in just outside of his striking range. They regarded him with curiously cocked heads, and intelligent, beady little eyes. He pressed his lips together and adjusted his tail so that it curled neatly around his hindquarters, only to return his attention to the boy. 

His ears peaked atop his dusky head and he sniffed, "Haven't met many who dare come out this way." He adds, casting his muzzle out towards the frigid depths of the lake. "But I imagine instability in life or the mind drives many to risk much for little reward." Alshain smiles and bends to chew at the skin near his aching leg.
