Redhawk Caldera There's a shining in the shadows

going with the assumption you laid out in discord, but I can update this as well if things change <3

For @Sphyra and/or @Caracal and/or @Killdeer

@Bronco had left a bit ago, sure that he'd caught wind of Niamh and wanting to see if he could track her down.  Fennec had told him outright that she thought it was a waste - probably a little harsh, even for her, but Fennec didn't see the point in looking for somehow who didn't want to be found.  Niamh could live with the consequences of leaving just like she'd been prepared to.

Obviously Bronco felt differently... and Fennec at least knew when to stop.  She was still his mom.

But now they knew the truth.  Phox had come back with news that Fennec honestly didn't know what to do with, and while she was worried, she was also a little glad he was still gone.  How the fuck was he going to take this?

Worried, stressed, upset - there was only one thing to do with all of that and it wasn't talking about it.  Tierra was back now and that meant she had four pups to teach some shit to; maybe this wasn't the healthiest mentoring mindset but it was certainly an effective distraction.  So Fennec gathered as many of them together as she could in an open clearing near the base of the caldera.
