Neverwinter Forest Ukijijuk

Pine trees stretched high. Their needles blanketed the forest floor beneath their boughs. Small prey scent was strong in the wood. If he looked up into the trees, Kannoyak could see birds fluttering from branch to branch.

Rustling from overhead sent pine needles cascading down. They landed in his white coat. The hunter shook his fur until they fell to the ground. Turning his head, Kannoyak could see the proud stone fortress of the nearby village. It looked like a suitable home for hunters and traders. It may have been a suitable place to find a wife, as well.

Drawing his tongue along his whiskers, the hunter considered his options.
