Redhawk Caldera Strawberry Season

The howl called her attention to the caldera's rim, where a stranger stood. Although she didn't fancy herself a guardian, she was protective of her family's home, plus the little ones who lived here. She marched directly toward the wolf to let him know he was actually trespassing, though as she approached, Meerkat realized this was no stranger at all.

"Njord?" she said with some surprise, freezing for a moment before she smiled and waved her tail. Meerkat glanced around as if expecting to find a Redhawk nearby. But there was no one, only him. Well, she was here with him now, so no harm done, though his presence begged the question, "What're you doing here?"

Abruptly, she wondered if something had happened to @Reyes. He'd left to visit Sapphique some days ago, after getting some directions from her. Maybe Njord was here with news of some kind. Meerkat's brow furrowed.
