Redtail Rise She Swam Higher

Augur’s appearance and subsequent approach did not faze her, nor slow Masque’s step. She closed the distance to the cache nearby one of the Wealda’s favored haunts. He lingered beside her like a ghost, sniffing at the ragged skin, and she didn’t mind that either. She unshouldered the pelt, then nosed it into a bundle and covered it with some leaves for Avicus to find later.

Now she turned her full attention upon the Ulfhedinn, head bowed and tail low. He was gazing skyward and she glanced up too, seeing the birds circling. Augur soon dropped his head and began moving off in that direction. Wondering if they might find some carrion drawing the ravens’ attention, the young huntress gamely loped after him.
