Stone Circle Next Step

"Woah," she breathed, and tipped her head to stare all the longer at the mighty beasts down in the meadow. Even once they managed to take one down together, how were they supposed to eat all that meat? Her belly sure couldn't handle that much, and she didn't think Steph or Ezra's could, either. But maybe that was why they were still so small, and mama and all others, so much bigger.

Engrossed, she heard her mama's question, but only replied with the twitch of her ear and an absent, "uh huh." The bison and deer must've been pretty dumb to live so close to them, especially since mama spoke like they were regular things to eat. If Clary knew there was something out there that wanted to eat her, she knew she wouldn't get so cozy at their feet.

She continued to stare wide-eyed until she felt the burn of a gaze upon her back. Clary turned to see her sister looking straight at her, a silent question on her face. "Oh." She flitted her attention back and forth between Steph and her ma. "Uhh." Clary turned to the stones for help, but they all looked the same. With a wild guess, she pointed vaguely to the West - away from the meadow, at least, and, all paws crossed, in the right direction. "That way?" She added a smile, cheesy and apologetic, for good measure.
