Redsand Canyon Hangman is comin’ down from the gallows, and I don’t have very long.

Towhee didn’t even get twenty-four hours to recover from the birth before shit hit the fan again. She was minding her own business, nursing and otherwise tending to the newborn @Leona and @Jack Snipe, when the tremors came. She shook so badly, it actually dislodged the pups.

Standing abruptly, Towhee tried to step away from them and @Maxim, lest she accidentally hurt one of them. She took a few wobbly steps away from the bedding before sinking to the cool earthen floor of the den, pawing at her face and shaking uncontrollably.
