Wapun Meadow I Dream in Phosphorescence

no worries at all! IRL has to come first! im in no rush w this thread :D

a hunter for the fall. ancelin decided not to be picky about that and jerked his head toward where several weals in the grass signalled the procession of ruminants which had passed through. "i'm ancelin," he introduced, finding a thin trail through the dark trees. "we live in bearclaw valley. you'll see how it's shaped. my grandfather used to rule there. my father was born there, and now my daughters will inherit it."
his voice grew in confidence as he spoke; his plume came up encouragingly, recognizing her as a companion now that they moved after meat together. "my mate is ameline. she's queen. tell her what you told me, honest, about staying till winter."
it didn't need a response; ancelin snaked ahead, crouching along a clump of juniper just as a streaming of caribou poured into wapun meadow.
