Redtail Rise Mama Leone left a note on the door

Thinking he might narrowly escape after all, Glawackus was filled with more than adrenaline, but something akin to mad hope; until the baying of the shadow brought forth another contender, this one large and pale and gunning for him.

Glawackus twisted and bent but could not move quickly enough to offset the boarish charge of the man, and so in swift succession he was knocked off-balance; the man colliding with his hip and reaching to snap at him, either to hold him or to draw blood and take a pound of flesh for his transgression - he only knew he had to escape.

With the giant beside him and the shadow closing in fast, Glawackus had to make a snap decision - to save his hide he'd have to try throwing the rabbit as a diversion. The rabbit being his prize, and the reason for him to delve across the dangerous invisible line to begin with, he was loath to entertain the thought — but at the same time, he had to try something before they could sink their many teeth in to him.

So he did the unthinkable: throwing the rabbit hard, sideways, in the face of the girl as he spun to snap defensively at the pale shape of the man, weaving back and trying to find his footing so he could put distance between himself and them, and hopefully fly free across the rocky terrain!
