Redsand Canyon it's hell to where you go

Diaspora's TM thread (but AW) - these tags are for reference *cackles as the entire pack is tagged* @Stigmata @Mahler @Takiyok @Finch @Redshank @Ketzia @Piper @Damien @Nocturnal @Aries @Sterling @Vonn @Winterbourne

the elk herd that stigmata had first showed thorn on the summit of sunspire's ranges had dispersed onwards, ever in search of grass under the tundra's frozen expanse. the snow they traversed through had been sullied by hoof and manure, and a tan ribbon of mud and slough cut through pristine snowpack, making their trail easy for all to follow.

thorn noted he was not alone as he followed; crows overhead chattered, and occasionally he caught sight of roving coyotes too. like him, they followed the migratory herd of elk - hoping no doubt, that he would be the ticket to their next meal.

it seemed the flat plateau just beyond the mountain's rough shoulders housed most of the herd; thorn saw their bodies milling under tall arches of red -- a flaring contrast to the white snow that lurked beneath their stony arms. finding a hilled vantage in which to observe the herd, thorn rested -- his gaze turned to a pair of stragglers he had noticed earlier in the day.
