He roused in the middle of the night, and as he exited the cave he'd used to shelter on the lower slopes of the Lone Star Mountain, Talion's cool gaze found the valley before him to be blanketed in a pale mist. Without hesitation he began his descent, careful as he stepped into areas with reduced visibility and focusing entirely on the downward deer trail he'd chosen to follow. From among the branches of a nearby conifer, the familiar hoot of an owl broke the silence, and it's fierce yellow eyes followed the ashen wolf's departure.
Talion pressed on, choosing to go around the mountains, and found himself on the outskirts of a forest. He moved between the foliage, moonlight piercing the thinning canopy and dappling his raven dorsal, illuminating the moisture that hung in the air. A foraging mouse, alerted by the arrival of this predator, scurried over the scattered fallen leaves before disappearing into it's burrow. Talion sniffed the air, content that he wasn't intruding, and continued deeper into the woods.
