Broken Boulder ironwood

just a RO, open to @Sulukinak if u wanna throw a single post in, this is just setting timeline and the arrival can be referenced <3

the mountains fell away. the valleys faded. they had evaded the packwolves, he and she. a circle of rabbitskin hung down over the empty socket, held there by a plaster of daubed mud and what herbs he did know.

cen would live. the day he had woken to that truth it had been also to a deep hatred for the sunshine tribes and their force.

the cracked stone cast a long shadow. cen drank from the creek and pulled away the dressing from his healed eye.

the ugly reflection of a man redolent with filth stared back at him, and the caribou hunter bared his yellowing fangs in the rictus of a grin.
