Redhawk Caldera IGNIS UMBRA

Elwood watched as Nightjar successfully brought down the target. It was exhilarating, even though his own paws were firmly rooted to the ground. He remembered his earliest hunts and how challenging yet rewarding they had been, and knew that the same feelings were coursing through Nightjar's veins.

Once the group came to a halt and Peregrine had checked on Pantaleimon, the Alpha indicated that it was time to feast. Naturally, he and Fox would eat first, but once they had taken their fill, Elwood moved in as second-in-command. He tore off a large chunk from the beast's flank and dragged it away from the carcass, intending to share it with Eljay. "In a few months, you'll be hunting just like Nightjar," he said as he settled next to his son and began to eat.
