Emberwood today we will survive

@Theia :) Assuming she has momentarily slipped away from the others to find more prey, but feel free to have @Tree and/or @Nikan pop in if you want them close by.

Her stalking did not cease this time once the sun rose. It was only the early hours of the morning, and she had not yet felt the desire to close her eyes and drift off into sleep. Rather, the constant images and hushed voices, all urged her to continue in the direction of which she was heading - to be a leader. Kelina was brought up with the idea that she would one day be the alphess of her pack, and although that had never happened, it gave her almost an arrogant assurance that she would indeed lead. The trio she had begun to gather confirmed her thoughts. The Nightstalker would not settle for being a subordinate, so she would have to take matters into her own hands and command the pack of darkness that she saw in her mind. Yes, it would be her domain. Tree would share it with her. And perhaps if he proved himself undeniably useful, one day perhaps Nikan might even join them in their leadership. Only time would tell.

She shifted through the trees scattered in the woods, occasional beams of light falling onto her blackened pelt and revealing the shadow a split second before she molded into the dark once more. Elegant as usual were her movements, graceful and confident with an air of danger that warned most not to come too close. Perhaps if one was able to spark her interest enough she might initiate a conversation, but otherwise her only reason to communicate with another was after putting on a mask so that she could tease them and lure them into her trap like a farmer attempting to capture a theiving fox.
