Blacktail Deer Plateau up in arms

Fox nodded, noting the slight hesitation when he departed. She wondered why he had come to the plateau at all. Sure, he said it was because he wanted to make sure she was well, but he could have determined that as soon as he sniffed the air close to her new kingdom. Instead, he had chosen to linger. Scimitar had not sought her out, but he may as well have. He could have bolted at the first sight of her, but he chose instead to stick around and ask further questions about her new life. It puzzled her, but she didn't think too long on it.

Only when his figure had disappeared from her view did she turn herself around and return to the inner depths of Blacktail Deer Plateau. As soon as she was away from the border, she didn't even think of him any longer. He was a mere stranger to her now, even if they could have been something more if things had gone differently.
