She quit scrubbing at her eyes when Erzulie pressed her tongue to her face, stilling to let the Obsidian wash away the irritating grands of sand and salt alike. When she finished, Haunt could just barely peel her eyes open without feeling a gritty, stinging sensation. She kept them reduced to slits, squinting between Erzulie and then Chacal. They went a little wide when the latter pressed close, fixing on the girl's wound.
Ignoring the prickling in her eyes, she suddenly whipped her head around to locate the stag. She pushed into a crouch when she saw him flagging further down the beach. The three of them were really in no condition to resume the hunt, even though he might've been much easier prey now. Haunt couldn't stop staring, her eyes soon watering and forcing her into a series of rabid blinks.
As she stood there, eyes, nose and throat burning, fur sopping wet and now crusted in sand, Haunt couldn't help but think of how much she despised hunting in or near the sea. The leadership swore that it had much to offer in way of fare, yet Haunt had never yet tasted seafood she enjoyed. And this experience was all the more damning. Unless they explicitly instructed her otherwise, she would be avoiding the seaside from this day forward.
Slowly, she returned her gaze to Chacal's split visage. "Are you okay...?" she questioned hoarsely, a sour look fixing on her own disheveled face as an intrusive thought crossed her mind. Perhaps she should've gone with Vex after all, avoided this whole situation and put the godforsaken ocean in her rear view mirror. Hindsight was a bitch.
