Moonspear nightmares

The smell of blood only fueled Sialuk's attack. When Meerkat pushed at her face, Sialuk's growls grew louder and meaner. Her animal brain had taken over, and no logic floated about in those puffy pink folds of her still-young mind. She bit down harder now, her sharp teeth sinking in further. This was about the time that Meerkat did yeet her off and Sialuk gained some sense of what she'd done.

Looking on in horror at what she'd done, Sialuk flattened her ears against her head and whined apologetically. What had come over her, anyhow? Remembering something her mother had done when she and Saviguk had accidentally drawn blood, Sialuk quickly looked around for the herb Kukutux had used. It as a common one, although Sialuk did not know its name in either the common tongue or her mother's.

There! She spotted some just a few paces away. Working quickly, she pulled it from the ground, chewing on it as she'd seen her mother do several times before. It probably wasn't the best job, but she inched her way toward Meerkat's leg, hoping the creamy girl would allow her to apply it there.
