Swiftcurrent Creek one last turn

Set a day or so before the move - for @Tomahawk !

Today was her last day as Alpha of Swiftcurrent Creek. Tomorrow, the pack would strike out for Nova Peak - and 'Bazi Swift' would no longer make sense. Bazi knew very well which name she would be replacing it with, and was spending her last day patrolling the outskirts and pondering her proposal. It had to be heartfelt - but not too soppy. Suggest that she was giving herself over to him - but not in a way that demeaned her, or took away from her position as Alpha. They were equals, and he had to know that.

Bazi meandered the farthest reaches of the pack's claim in silence, brows knitted hard over her eyes as she practiced and re-wrote the speech in her head. The fragile winter sun warmed her back, and she could just about hear the Creek's purling swansong in the distance.
