Bearclaw Valley Drone

@Gavriel is with her in the background. (PRE-)LOCUSTS! :)

Wildfire stood back, eyeing the head of the path warily. It reminded her a bit too much of a tunnel, what with all the boulders and trees enclosing it. She sensed something interesting lay at its foot, something alluringly mysterious, yet the young she-wolf hesitated. She glanced over her shoulder to catch Gavriel's eye, wondering if he was interested in exploring the trail and where it led. He wasn't a scout by trade, though, and as far as he knew, they were supposed to be heading straight to the caldera and back. So far, he hadn't complained about the ranger's scenic route, though.

"Should we—" she called out to him, only for an ominous, distant buzzing to cause her to cut off abruptly. Wildfire squinted, glancing up at the sky. It was clear and refreshingly blue. Her gaze dropped back to earth, scanning her surroundings even as the droning continued and a sense of foreboding came over her.
