Redtail Rise the colloquy of monos and una

augur had always been a deliberator while red woman was action.

it was why she had been wealda and he ulfhedinn.

and it was why she turned away from him now after a swift deescalation of her respect in his authority.

had he the ability, he might have wondered if red woman ever respected his own. 

augur remained still as the boulder for which his mate had named him, watching her depart in ire.

but a beast in soul and body, he turned only with a rumble for wolverine and a relieved greeting for his mate. he tasted the blood upon her mouth, inhaled the places she had gone to hunt with their child; he was wound and soothed by the normalcy of new snow, how she soothed the hurt red woman left behind.

she is angry.

his voice was entish as red wrath gathered in the cold sky, an ancient murmuring that vibrated through his mate's hackles.

she does not trust me.

a belief. she who had borne faith in him before no longer did.

her throated wrath was in the heavens, summoning blood.

augur set his yellow eyes upon wolverine.

go to your mate, an urging said in affection.

they must find one another.

the factions of redtail were gathering.
