Neverwinter Forest nunyae

@Engel

After a brief few hours of time spent among her sisters, doting upon her daughters, and recounting the past few days amongst themselves, Sitala departed again for exploration. It had been revealed through Sitala's chase of Kimala through the valley that there was at least one pack of wolves here, and that brightened their spirits. Soon the daughters would have their husbands—and with luck, their family would grow come springtime.

They had collectively decided (with Namid's urging) that the mountain pack would be their first target. The others would investigate while Sitala explored to the north to broaden their chances—and thus she had found the temperate forest. There was evidence in some of the deeper areas that a pack had once lived there; perhaps generations had passed since the dens had been occupied, but it gave her something to think about.

She was investigating one of the larger burrows with some care, finding no scents of wolves, but a strong scent of rodent. Her interest was piqued as well as her hunger, and she paced at the entrance to the den with her head canted low to the soil, trying to peer inside without putting herself through any rigorous digging. Of all things, Sitala was a bit vain.
