Blackwater Islands tragedy thrills me

@Gabe

Still unable to locate her siblings, Salish decided to forget all about them for a little while. They'd find her eventually. After all, wolves had a keen sense of smell for a reason. The islands lived up to their name, surrounded by the iron-gray waters of the sea. The sand underfoot was soft as it moulded to her paws leaving perfect impressions as she traversed one of the islands located closest to the mainland. She explored without any particular aim, her nose skimming the sand, until an accidentally deep breath caused her to inhale a good amount of sand. Emitting a growl, Salish shook her narrow head, pawing at her nose and snuffling loudly. The sand stung the interior of her nostrils, and it was most unpleasant. She was so disturbed, and intent upon clearing her nose, that she did not notice another presence nearby, possibly watching her comical display.
