Lone Star Mountain We rise and we fall

@Stigmata

She had been filling most of her time with exploring. It was something she hadn't been able to do as much while leading the glacier wolves, so she had taken full advantage of it now. It was honestly the only thing that kept her from returning to the glacier to spend her days digging through the snow, looking for what she was afraid was hidden under there. Soon, she planned to make a trip to the coastal packs to see if any of her family had ended up there. Taki still held on to the hope that everyone had made it out safely and that she would find them all safely living their lives in whatever pack would give them shelter--she tried not think about the horrible alternative. 

This wasn't the first time she had explored this part of the mountains. The northerner liked it here; it was a challenge to maneuver through the slick, rocky terrain, and it kept her mind busy as she tried to learn it the way she knew every inch of the glacier. Eventually, she found herself high atop a snowy peak, drawn there by the scent of prey--not to hunt but just to watch. She sat back on her snowy haunches, fiery gaze drifting down to the massive, horned beasts below as they went about their business.
