Redtail Rise Life and death

before Phoenix!

The death of Red Woman was a blow to the Rise, but with the strength of the pack it would not be a fatal one. Something rose within her, not too unfamiliar now. It caused her to be a little more snappy, and yet even still she could not bear to be too far from her man. 

There would be familiar signs for him to observe—she artfully kept both near and far. Her own aching spirit kept her closer, but when he investigated and tested her she would show her teeth: not now! 

She darted after him now, a little more playful today than two days prior—when they had first lost Red Woman. It was not this on her mind, then, as the scent of her began its change. She prowled after @Mountain Boulder who was never too far, either. 

Existence was a cycle. There had been death, and now, there would be life.
