Wapun Meadow Blizzard of Souls

Crisscrossing her way across the Teekon Wilds, Chip was pretty content with this life. She could go where she pleased, whenever she wanted, and she didn’t have to answer to anybody. Sure, it wasn’t the most sustainable lifestyle, but it suited her well enough for now. Maybe, in the future, she would seek some sense of settling down, but at four years old, nobody should be holding their breath waiting for that moment to come. Almost her entire life had been spent as a traveler, and she wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. The times she’d stopped were only because of that pesky thing called pregnancy and pups. Even for those, she hadn’t stopped long. Once they were weaned and could take care of themselves, she sent them on their way.

As she was musing about all this, out of nowhere came a blood curdling scream. What was with all these spooky places?! She just couldn’t catch a break. Even though Chip was selfish, she wasn’t cruel, so she figured she should see if somebody was in danger. What she found was a younger male looking as though he’d seen a ghost.

Are you alright, kid? she asked, looking around to see if she’d missed whatever caused him to scream like that.
