The morning had been spent marking the borders, and the afternoon on the shoreline, hunting for her supper. Half a seal had washed up for her to drag back, saving her the trouble of actually killing something — and so, now came the evening.
Presently, she was standing in the cold waters of the Totoka River, preening at a scab on her shoulder. She was not sure where it'd come from, but the chewy bits of scab were a nice after-lunch treat, as far as she was concerned. Soon enough, it would heal and fade entirely from memory — but nothing could ever take this meal from her.
The rest of her body was already clean; she'd spent nearly an hour grooming herself, by then, and was now simply whiling away the rest of the day, wondering what the kids were doing back at home.
