Noctisardor Bypass We'll sneak out while they sleep

Glaukos took the beaver he had culled to the rendezvous point, and there with the help of the lagoon he pulled apart the carcass and cleaned what he could. The fur would have been of great use to some woman, probably, as it was water-proof and thick; but Glaukos did not think of this, and when he had finished butchering the creature in to component parts he left the remains to soak and to drift. Some of it he ate, because it had been hard work to drag the giant rodent this far and his hunger won over his usual practicality. There was still quite a lot of meat to be carried, so he set about doing that.

The man did not know where @Druid was exactly. He knew where she liked to sleep, and generally how far she might travel to avoid being sick near him, and so he began a lazy hunt for her while carrying the stripped remains of the beaver; hopefully in this more accessible form it would be appealing, given that one sister had not been keen to eat.
