Sun Mote Copse Run Down

"This is it, here," Niamh explained to @Rasalas, as they came to the edge of the forest. She paused to sniff along the borders- she knew hoping to catch Alyx's scent in this very particular spot was a fool's hope, but she checked regardless, gaining a bit of information, at least, about those who had patrolled recently. She glanced up into the boughs of the trees that sheltered them and noticed a few leaves had begun to turn. She told herself it was simply the evening's golden light, as the blonde female was not willing to think fall was on its way so soon. She squatted to mark the borders, and then tilted her head back to howl, announcing her return. She wasn't sure Phox would rush to greet her, given the way their last conversation had ended...But she chose not to think too much about it, and directed her attention to the child instead. 

"I'm hungry. You hungry?" She asked, turning to gaze softly at the boy, who had been fairly quiet throughout the journey. It occurred to her, then, that she ought to seek medical attention for him as soon as possible, and tilted her head back- calling @Eljay for medical help, and adding in a plea for sustenance as well. She wasn't sure if their caches would have survived the flooding, but surely someone in the pack had some food to bring. She was still quite frustrated with her packmates, having allowed her daughter to go missing- and hoped they might try to at least appease her with food upon her return.
