Wild Berry Meadow ludus

Starbuck was growing bolder and bolder in her wanderings. She took unending joy in watching the wonders of the earth unfold, and where once it had been lonely, she found her travels to be centering and peaceful.

In a field of berry bushes, joy took a firm grip of her and she set off, laughing, after a quick little rabbit. Between trees and bushes she chased it, excited by the thought of a meal. So excited, indeed, that she was blind to all else around her, and did not notice the large rock that cropped up before her until it was too late. The rock caught her foot, splitting her back claws to the quick and sending her sprawling. She landed heavily on one leg, but not steadily, and she screamed aloud as pain shot through her shoulder and she crumpled.
