Whatever deer were previously here were long gone now. The scents were stale, two or three weeks old by Watcher's estimation, and far too faint to determine a number. She assumed from the small size of the scrape that there had been a single buck and one or two does here. Nothing worth trying to track down, at any rate.
She lifted her nose from the dirt a little to catch a new scent, this one canine in nature. Male. Healthy. Unlikely to pose a threat to her, she thought, but her posture grew more defensive all the same. As Persia came into view, Watcher maintained a straight back and turned to face him directly, but her ears pulled back and her low-hanging tail swung fluidly. Friendly, she communicated, but prepared.
He looked like he had just rolled out of a briar patch with his fur all stuck up at flyaway angles, but she doubted the lackadaisical appearance said anything about his personality. With only a quick glance at his eyes in greeting, she couldn't tell what he was thinking, but stepped aside to grant him access to the scrape. There was little to be had here, but with a potential partner, searching for the old inhabitants was suddenly more tempting.
