Noctisardor Bypass cryptic shot

Jomyo told her to eat it soon, which Haunt decided meant it wasn't worth caching. She abandoned the strip of flesh in favor of listening to the adult as she delved further into the nuances of salvaging carrion. Haunt's takeaway, in the end, was that much of the meat might not be worth the risk, particularly since they weren't hurting for food otherwise. However, the bones were a different story altogether. Surely she could break off some the smaller bits and bury them for later use.

She sort of fancied one of those massive horns, though when Haunt moved forward to inspect one, she realized it was much too embedded in the skull to attempt to detach. And she didn't think she could possibly transport the entire head, much less bury it. Instead, she turned her attention to the animal's ribs. They were pretty large, so her eyes kept roving for something a little more manageable.

The pup wound up separating one of the shinbones from the heap of rotting flesh, which was good enough for her. Wincing at the taste of rot in her mouth, she dropped it and said to Jomyo, "I'm going to go store this. Thanks for your help." She snatched up her prize and turned, trotting away to find the perfect spot for burial.
