Lion Head Mesa when you're feeling low, i'll be there too

Tuna knew that life was not always a cakewalk. this was a prominent thing when she was a young coyote and even still as an adult. there were many who did not like her because of the blood she had, most of which who had come to place permanent teeth marks on her rump to remind her that she was not like them.

but perhaps it was better to be different, to not be of the same cloth as the beast. of course, there were those who walked both sides of animals. she always wondered how they had come to be. and tuna held this thought only for a moment when she had come upon @Beatrix. originally, Tuna assumed that she was sleeping by the spring, as it was a very relaxing place to be in within the mesa. but as she looked on further, there was something wrong. something visibly, terribly, wrong.

so the fellahin, who did not know a single thing about this noblewoman, rushed over to check to see if she was alright. she called out loudly and would even dare to touch the woman with a delicate paw to see if she could rouse her. but every attempt failed, and even Tuna would come to notice that her body was cold.

soon a panicked cry would search for the ears of @Senmut and any others who would be able to help Tuna with her next decision. she didn't dare call for the divine one, not wishing to bring such sorrow to her throne room. but until anyone came, tuna would be pacing around, desperately trying to see what could have caused such a death.
