It had begun.

Khoe had been hoping for a smooth pregnancy, and seeing how it took two weeks for any adverse side effects to show, she thought that she might get her wish. However, that evening, after rising from a long day's nap, she found herself crippled with nausea. She managed to sneak away to a nearby sequoia and relieve herself in between the protruding roots, but she knew that she would have to compose herself quickly so as to dig herself a proper den.

As she trotted around to the other side of the large beast, Khoe began to slowly dig at the base as a weak attempt at creating a quarry.
