Dawnlark Plains I want this, and I want it now!

AW! Maybe @Shale or just a reference tag.

It had been two weeks since her and Shale had mated. She couldn't be certain that she was pregnant and she didn't want to get her hopes up, not until she got a baby bump or something. She wasn't having morning sickness or nausea, but she did have some strange cravings. The plains were often willed with migrating herds of deer and sometimes elk, but that's now what Pema was after.

She found herself rummaging through one of the caches that morning, looking for one thing imparticular and coming up empty-handed. She was on the hunt for sheep, lamb, or goat. Something of that nature. She had never had a strong fondness before, but now it was the only thing she could think of eating. So much so that she was a bit disappointed and aggravated when she didn't find it. She kept digging around, but would inevitably find nothing.
