Sun Mote Copse double cheeseburger, hold the onion

At their summons, Niamh urged their pale son to comply, and albeit with some reluctance, she convinced young Primrose to follow her to where the small assembly had gathered to go for a hunt. He waited along with Towhee- who still looked absolutely miserable- and Phox, giving a nod to Chanel and Maia, and simply giving a look to the newcomer, Savaktuk. This was the new one she'd been told about, then; a sturdy, soldier of a wolf...One who didn't talk much, or so she'd been told. She'd be interested, then, to see him put to work. Prim remained somewhat quiet and distant, but Quetzal- as always- wasted no time in stealing the spotlight. Niamh chuckled and rolled her eyes. It would've been easier for her to just pick Q up and carry her back to the spot she'd chosen for her and Primrose to stay...But both of them were too big to be carried anymore. This was why they were here, after all- they were getting big enough that they needed to learn how to hunt, and would do so via observation. 

Alyx hadn't shown up- but Niamh wasn't surprised. She'd taken Bronco's departure very hard, and Niamh figured she might want some time alone to deal with her feelings. Niamh had more or less simply closed hers off- Bronco and Meerkat would be safe. And she hoped that Hydra might give her son a bit more confidence. Bronco, of course, would make sure that Meerkat was safe. 

Not everyone would show up- as not everyone could. Wraen was excused, and with her she assumed likely that Arcturus might stay nearby, or patrol. Eljay, a medic, might also choose to hang back. But at least amongst then, they had six adults- enough, she figured, to bring down a deer.
