Silver Creek Stream of Lullabies

Setting for the following morning!

Vex limped lightly through the trees, her shoulder giving minor complaints. She trailed further and further from the Dominion, orange eyes of fire searching the immediate area. Something was off. It was quiet — too quiet.

She picked up her pace, lifting her nose to the air and taking in a deep breath. She caught wind of a stranger. Her eyes narrowed, and she continued toward the scent. Eventually, she came upon a sleeping wolf. Vex barked loudly, then rasped, Up! Get up! Her tail rose over her back, and she glared down at the intruder.
