Hoshor Plains empire now

Having been across the plains during the time of the border scuffle did not put Mojag in the best light, so he began to do more patrols and keep a look out for wolves rather than the herd of bison, or at the very least favored his studies a little less.

When he found Nephele, she was watching another kind of herd. He moved with deference to where she waited, and when nearer he mentions, They're not deer, are they?

He already had an inkling. These creatures were larger than anything Mojag had hunted in the woods, and appeared to be nearly intelligent enough to feel the stirrings of Yellowstone in formation. A deer might run but these beasts merely watched, like a challenge.
