Arrow Lake Ouch that must've hurt

Ruenna was also drawn in by the commotion at the lake. Her eyes fell upon the strangest sight as she neared the source of the chaos: a heavily injured elk, flailing about in the water. Rue couldn't understand why the creature would have waded so deeply into the lake, particularly with such a nasty set of injuries. 

Another packmate approached to investigate the clamor, and Rue moved toward the woman. Kazimir, Rue recalled. Her svelte build and swaying walk were unmistakable, even from a distance. Rue's tail wagged in an amicable way. Kazimir had struck her as one of her more standoffish packmates, but at least this crazy elk situation would provide a conversation starter to break the ice.
