The moment he heard the shrill cry, his ears twitched and he shifted from his position. The man had been prowling the trees that lined the valley, melding in their darkness, securing borders with the heavy, oily scent that dripped from his skin. But his duties had changed the moment he heard her call. If anything could tear him from his prior arrangements, it would be the call of his Goddess.

Raheerah broke into a run at first, and it slowed to a jog as he saw her. Lham was the first to enter his gaze, and then his attentions shifted to figures distant. Lham remained untouched. It was two females, though they seemed to pose little threat the beast was still wary. He moved first up to Dawa, rumbling lowly as he informed her of his arrival. Then, his pace picked up again and he galloped towards the two females.

Reaching them, his head held erect and his single burning eye landed on the one that stunk of salt, then her companion. "Ssspeeeaaak." His voice erupted deeply from the chasm of his chest, an unyielding front to hold these strangers in curiosity.
