Redtail Rise where'er i walk ten thousand serpents follow at my feet

The cooler temperatures did nothing to temper the warmth that had begun to grow within her soul, as it instead spread, stoked by the kindling ideas of the life she and Ancelin would have together. She yearned for snow to fall, for winter to come so that it could pass and then they could be on their way, though she tried to convince herself not to rush time. Not when there were still the Toweards to train and encourage, and she loved them dearly enough to enjoy her time in the Rise simply because she loved the pack. 

She heard Ancelin's voice, and left the borders where she'd been marking so she could stride to his side, rumbling a note as she teased the fur at his withers where one hue bled into the next. Now when she looked at him, she fantasized about what their children might look like. 

She waited for Augur by her mate's side, hoping he would receive the news well.
