@Goldhawk maybe? If you have time. AW for anyone else too.
With little show for it and a stomach full of saltwater, Wynonna decides—on her way back—to travel inland. The first time in weeks, if she is remembering correctly, but the effort is there. If the sea is providing her little (minuscule fish she isn't even sure she's actually ingested), land might offer her more. She comes back the way she'd originally traveled and when Donnelaith is in the distance, she turns eastward into a world unfamiliar to her.
The field is open, what she imagines might have been a beautiful expanse of greenery, left in a wake of budding life. It has been week since the locust swarm took what they wanted and left but now the peeking of new life comes from the ground. The grasses are barely an inch or two in growth but it leaves little hidden from her eyesight. It is when she spots a rat scurrying from one place to another, that she springs into action. Her movements are slow and unsteady and, ultimately, the rodent gets away from her and Wynonna is left in tired desperation and failure.
