King Elk Forest To The Top

@Vindicta

Tall trees covered the skies in a dim lighting as the canopies hung low, hindering the light from coming through and lighting the earth below with its warming touch. The forest was dark even during the day, it was obivous that something had happened in recent times that the woods had failed to produce much prey - however, the beast could smell them. It was a faint smell, but there were some that were either still lingering or who were coming back after the disaster had struck. 

Lacking followers, he did nothing but search out the lands to see which was the most fruitful. Which would be best to claim once he had gathered enough loyal followers to create a formidable band. This forest seemed promissing, and he wouldn't touch the prey within it just yet. He'd continue to hunt the wolves who were too weak from hunger to defend themselves against him - and allow the prey to flourish once more before he started hunting the normal prey a wolf would feed upon. Despite his filled belly, feeding on wolves lacked the nutrition that prey had in their flesh. It was nothing but protein, and it was something rather than nothing... but even he needed a deer every now and then to keep himself in the best of shape.

Rolling shoulders carried him deeper into the woods as he ventured further, memorizing the landscape of the terrain and maping it out for further use.
