It had been a long time.
Chakliux had not yet returned. She tried not to think on it too hard, to not force her mind down dark passages with a simple question.
But winter had come, and the scent of something on the wind from deeper in the wilds made her itch beneath her skin. She had no idea what to call it, but it made her mantle stand on end. So, she began to pull from Moontide, just for small amounts of time. Marina was her focus, but she was hunting for them, she said. For the boy that was in her lodge as well.
Tullik scaled a small, stout mountain today, on the cusp of a greater range beyond it, and huffed a short breath into the air. The scent of birds haunted this place, and this late in the year she was not sure she could find eggs, or chicks to prey on. So, she turned her eyes to the sky for a stray juvenile, or an incapacitated adult.
