Redhawk Caldera IGNIS UMBRA

This is intended for the Firebirds' first active pack hunt. Either way, we're huntin'! Each round will last four days. This will count toward +20 EXP if you complete 3+ rounds.

The full, bright moon floated over the eastern horizon as Peregrine traipsed down the mountainside. The air was invigoratingly cool, with a brisk breeze blustering in from the north. It carried to him the scent of prey. Tonight was the night. With the harvest moon lighting the way, the conditions were ideal to lead his first pack hunt since going partially blind. He was ready.

He hoped he wasn't the only one. The Firebirds were now seven months old and it was time for them to play an active role in the hunt. When he stopped at the caldera's base and howled for the pack, he urged his three growing children to join him. Peregrine knew Wildfire's paw was still bothering her but hopefully she could still play a small role. She and Raven would make good chasers. He particularly hoped Nightjar would attend, as he showed the most promise as a hunter.

There was a herd of elk passing through the wilderness just a mile or two beyond their borders, somewhere out on the prairie. That's what the scents on the breeze told him. The Alpha male licked his chops as he waited for his fellows to join him, then head out on their moonlit hunting party.
