Verdigris Ravine we both knew it was true

S'ari was attuned to the sounds of the desert, whether daysounds or nightsounds. She had done her nightly hunting some time ago and had picked a spot to sleep in. Now she awoke from sleep, her ears on a swivel before she was even fully awake. Somewhere, she could hear... skittering. Someone was here, whether a little desert mouse or something larger she could not yet tell. The clinging scent of the others who stayed here with her (Zoug, Mercedes, Kusuma) made it difficult to pick up any new smells.

The skittering sound had stopped. S'ari got up on light paws and wandered, keeping her ears a-swivel for anymore sounds. She released a quiet yip, to see if anyone would react to to it. Such a noise was unmistakably coyote in nature, which would either draw whoever was here closer to her, or scare them away. Normally, S'ari would be much louder and more obvious, but she did not know where the rest of her Tribe were, exactly, or if they were sleeping. So she wanted to stay quiet for now.
