Moonspear out of mind, out of sight

He paused in the distance, and Sialuk ducked behind a large boulder, slipping out of his sight (and he out of hers). A mischievous grin curled the corners of her mouth, and she felt the thrill of doing something without quite being caught. It felt dangerous to her, but that only added to the fun. The rain surely helped conceal her (or so she believed), and Sialuk stifled a giggle as she poked her head back out to see taataa had continued walking ahead.

She tried to make her footsteps as quiet as she could, stepping softly as she followed Jarilo. Blinking away the rain, she wondered where he was going. Was there something out there that he needed to get? Where did he go when he went hunting? She knew that he did not always bring back food, so what was he doing when he left those times?

Lost in thought, she failed to see the stick in her path, and it cracked with a loud SNAP! certain to give away her location.
