Swiftcurrent Creek Huntsman

Arlette could tell that Cygnet was not happy with her decision. But as her guardian she wanted the girl safe, and for now she was too young to run with them. "No, Cygnet. No running with us. You join later. If you do run with us you will eat last or not at all," she spoke firmly, perhaps something a little more unusual but a buck, even injured was no joke. Plus, she might sprain her ankle or knee with the extensive running and chasing. Arlette looked at the other adult wolves to make it clear that she would keep the girl to the rules. "You can join when the deer is on the ground," she reminded Cygnet.

Arlette turned and focussed on Ensio. She nodded. "Yes," she confirmed verbally. The female then pushed herself forward, giving Cygnet one last look and then glanced at Arric and Quill. They would have to start with the chase of the animal. Arlette was keen on going and letting Cygnet make her own decisions and live with those consequences. The woman moved into the direction of where the elk probably should be. Arlette had never really hunted with Arric. Better not get too distracted by him. She could use a lengthy run to chase him into the trap that the others would plan ahead.
