Noctisardor Bypass I like me...

Spook had wandered to the northeastern borders, bringing a bone to the corner of the territory where the land started to slope upwards and make it hard for strangers to wander in. It was the humerus of a hare -- not a big loss to anyone if it didn't end up in someone's stomach.  Here at the edge, he looked around once, and spotting nobody, looked back to the distant still-kinda-smoky mountain, then dropped the bone at his feet. Spook dug a quick hole, buried it, and then headed away.

He hurried away, quick to leave the scene. Spook had other plans in mind and once he was well into the heart of the territory, he lowered his nose to the ground and started searching for scents. He still hadn't felt like he really had proven himself yet, despite the work he'd done. He just wasn't as enthusiastic about fighting as his siblings, and he was still thinking it was the ultimate failure in his mother's eyes.

He was pretty sure there was a nice place to find some rabbits or voles or something up ahead.  He could maybe hunt some of those... Prove his worth.  Or uh. Something.
