Redtail Rise little lost one

dated two-three weeks or so after the rendezvous move! tag @Augur -- the day that TD goes missing!

 

New Snow was permitted to range more and more from the rendezvous. And at last she did! The first week or so of it, there was nothing amiss or awry. She returned home to curious, eager cubs. Sometimes one was ranging on the threshold of where they could and ought not to go, and New Snow and Mountain Boulder would shepherd them back. But this was the way of cubs.

On a particularly rainy evening, New Snow returned with Mountain Boulder at her side after a successful hunt. The elements worked in their favor this day; a doe had lost its footing in an effort to evade the hunters. They two came back with a prize for their cubs. It rained cats and dogs, but her cubs knew how to take shelter if needed. Both she and Mountain Boulder had  taught them.

But she still felt concern. She was a mother, and a new one at that. And so she whined in a low summons, for @Bobcat and @Thursdays Dawn to come and see what she and her man had brought down for them.
