Blackfeather Woods courage is knowing what not to fear

omg Iris are you a mind reader?
I NEEDED this thread :D
btw, the die say Damien shall fail on his hunt :(

Damien's body was on it's limit. His thinning limbs carried him as fast as his energy levels allowed, but this time it had not been enough. The slowing shadow watched the hare slip through his claws and run away from him. He cursed, he needed that thing for his brother, but he had not been strong enough which had already started looking like a frustrating pattern.

They had crossed little-to-no words lately, his brother and him. Damien had been distant again, he did not have an excuse this time but he had a reason to come back now. Aside from knowing whether his claim would have Blackfeather's paramount spy's support, Damien felt anguish to see his brother let go of himself in such way. The creature looked famish, but what was worrying was his attitude about it.

The dark prince approached with silent steps, head low and low ears. He was below Cicero in rank, and he respected his current position, but Damien's body language this time was more apologetic and remorseful than submissive.

"I tried hunting for you, brother... But the prey is scarce." he spoke in a low voice as he stopped advancing a few paces away from Cicero's skeletal body.
