Blacktail Deer Plateau Spooky scary skeletons

Let's make this the final round to wrap up here. This is the last post from Rue, & how about we agree to archive this on December 21, since that's when our next seasonal event will begin (yule ceremony w/ Elysium and co. GET HYPE!!)

Ruenna's packmates arrived and seemingly all at once, her attacker-- or attackers, as she could see now-- were removed. It was not long before the remains of the fox family were scattered around the wolves, and the night was quiet once more. Rue shook her pelt out, trying to control her own breathing and compose herself. A few spots along her spine and scruff twinged with pain; it seemed several of the foxes had gotten in some good bites here and there. "Thanks, everyone.." Rue said quietly, voice hoarse and trembling slightly. 

Rue stepped towards the dead vixen and sniffed curiously. Wrinkling her nose against the powerful scent of the toxins, she backed away from the corpse in disgust. These foxes must have been desperate to risk breaking into a healer's stores for sustenance. Rue took a deep breath of clean air before addressing the others once more. "Anyone want to walk with me to the Door?" Rue was more than ready to call it a night, but after such a chilling encounter she was reluctant to face the shadows alone.

Morning would melt away the terrors of the night, and it couldn't come fast enough for Rue.
