Blacktail Deer Plateau high alert (BWP!)

Lavender finally got to her feet as Sunny arrived, out of breath and in a panic, which didn't help her own feelings of dread and dishevelment. She pressed her nose against his cheek before withdrawing to stick to Catori's side, eager to share her warmth. Although the giant bird had left them and the sky was clear, Lavender was still trembling. She turned her attention to her father briefly as he gave a few more bits of information - and he didn't seem as scared. Lavender realized (as he went around to each of them to impart some comfort) that he was so much stronger than the rest of them. He was so smart, and knew just what to say.

But the den - she murmured in protest, afraid to leave what had become her little homestead. It was not typical for a wolf to live their whole life in the shelter of the earth though, and she knew it wasn't normal. Lavender took one last glance at the den before a deep sigh pulled free of her, and the group began to move. It was okay - she could find another one.
