Blacktail Deer Plateau there's nothing i want

The girl offered a flashing grin to Adi, replying "excited. you?"  As always, the words he uttered before his question were strangely beautiful, and she ought to remember to ask him what they meant. But her attention was stolen by the arrival of Pema, stretching languidly, and of her father's words. She knew him well enough to know that he was uneasy, and when she stepped forward to say goodbye, she murmured softly, "don't worry, Da. we'll be safe." She meant it, this was a mission and not an excuse to leave the territory to do stupid things, as she had in the past.

She pulled back, warmth in her eyes as she looked to her father. When the other's seemed ready, she swished her tail in a silent let's go, moving towards the borders with her two packmates at her side. She was confident that the plateau would be fine, the ranks were full and her pack-mates able-bodied. She shot her father a final glance over her shoulder, before her gaze shifted forwards, and to the task at hand.
