She was a burning rage.
It swept her in fire from nose to tailtip, it kept her heart beating, it kept her spirit aloft. The only thing between her and despair was the rage. She kept it from her family, she wrapped it in gentleness around her children.
But it was there. The sun fire, the rage that burned through the moon to give way to a ball of frenetic heat.
She stalked along the borders, her eyes following the path she had last seen the hated caribou man take. She dreamt of his blood on her whiskers and on her tongue. She dreamt of him, served to her on a silver platter, tendons and meats ready and ripe for picking. The bitter iron taste of hatred clung to her tongue, and she stopped for a moment to glare in pure loathing into the distance.
