As the pack is still getting established, lone wolves and travelers can show up here and not be attacked on sight just yet, but please do acknowledge that a pack is residing in the area! Hunt roll: 2
Silver Creek, thought Saena definitively as she watched the water swirling by. That would be its name. Her children were in the care of some pack wolf or another, so she had a moment of peace and quiet to contemplate the situation. The sky overhead was clear and blue, but the day was far from beautiful. The lack of foliage made the wood seem barren and there was a distinct absence of birdsong and a distinct presence of ravens, likely due to the liberal number of dead locusts on the ground. They were everywhere, like the sickest shag rug covering the whole wilds, and she was glad for the scavenging birds that cleaned them up.
Beneath the surface of the water darted small silver fish, another good reason to name it so. The fish would remain for a few days longer, unaffected by the plague but sure to be quickly affected by hungry wolves, but fish were difficult to catch. Saena was a large game tracker, a leader of hunts and a team player. Catching fish had never been her forte and ordinarily she didn't bother trying. But a rumble in her stomach bid her to rise and she stooped low over the creek, holding deathly still, until she darted her muzzle out, plunged it into the flowing (and surprisingly frigid) water and snapped her jaws shut.
An unexpected success! She reared her head back, speared between her teeth a small, sleek fish. She dropped it on the bank and tore into its soft belly immediately, but she was only one bite in when guilt held her fast, and her ears and body sunk low. How greedy of her, to have it to herself when she had a pack of hungry individuals who had given to her more than she'd ever given them, she thought, and she let up a low and quiet howl to invite a hungry pack member (or maybe someone else, much to her misfortune) to share in it with her, however small the portions might be.
