Northstar Vale and we're slipping off the course that we prepared

sated, and with the blood of the hunt washed from her fur, the fire swept sets her sights towards the mountains. she finds a trail across the rock that bears her ever higher, pausing time and again to peer over her shoulder at the view that stretches every further the higher she climbs. 

evening finds her cresting a ridge. the rock falls away before her in a startling suddenness; below stretches a vale tucked neatly between the peaks. it stretches far to the east and west, a parcel of green and blue among the greys and brown rock. auds sweep forward as gaze shifts over the vale. from this height, she might fashion herself a god. it reminds her of the male, and her lips thin. 

and so she begins her descent, sliding down the rock with nimbleness and gradually increasing pace. the floor of the valley rushes to meet her, and in a few moments her paws collide not with rock but the soft push of earth. nares flair, pleased with her discovery. not hers, she notes, and tests the air again. a pack is settled here; an annoyance that earns a flick of her tail. pausing, she reclines onto her haunches and issues a howl for an occupant of this place, not interested in trying her luck in pacing through unaccustomed. 

maybe @Takeshi? otherwise all welcome ^^
