Redtail Rise who want the smoke? who want the fade?

A bright expression painted Moon Runner’s face when Dry Creek savored the unique flavor of the late summer berry. The Rise, and the territory near it, was full of treasures. It made the spirit ponder… what gifts did Dry Creek’s salt-land hold?

The moment helped Moon Runner forget about the hard times she and she pack had recently endured… surely, when the day came for Moon Runner to look back upon this summer, she would only remember the sun-warmed sweet taste and the company of friends.

She ate her fill. Then, Moon Runner continued on and led Dry Creek, once again, along the hunters path.
