Uleön obviously needs some help over here...
[table][tr][td valign=center] [/td][td]
For as much as she hated it, Uleön had to get to it at some point. Her body ached from the uncomfortable position she'd obliged to sleep in for the past days, having found nothing better than an undersized hole under a rock ledge, probably abandoned weeks ago by a tiny badger. It wasn't suitable for Uleön's elder body.
Her hips cracked and her muscles ached, but the old female made long and slow slashes on the den's walls to expand the room, and then dragged the earth out with her weakening hind legs. That was until her body gave up, and she dropped down at the entrance feeling dizzy. She was breathing heavily, so she closed her eyes for a moment and allowed the shade the ledge provided to cool her body down as the heat dissipated through the cold earth. Whoever looked at her would think she'd passed out, and in truth she had been close to it, but she was awake, and her efforts hadn't even been very fruitful for the chamber behind her was perhaps just as small as it was an hour before.
