Since returning, the rain seemed like it was incessant, and what was normally something Fennec didn't mind soon became unbearable.  There wasn't much they could do about it, though... so wet and miserable it was.

The rain was distracting.  Noise and sensation wise, she had to stop a bit more often, take stock a little more.  Add the slick ground and the fact that she'd been gone, and Fennec's travels didn't stretch far from where she'd told @Penn they were staying.  

She remembered the river as a guiding feature, though, and when she found herself wandering today, the water rushing seemed louder than usual.  She slowed, pricking her ears and slowing down.  The rain made her unaware of Towhee for the moment, but she was caught by the change in the water.  She'd come here for a drink, but instead paused and listened.  It sounded as if the river was faster... and bigger? Judging the distance, she eased carefully forward, knowing the bank was likely not great for approach.
