Redhawk Caldera Can't see me cry ever again

When Towhee made her suggestion, Alyx almost rolled her eyes at her own ineptitude. Duh. She'd completely forgotten that there was a whole class of animals between small rodents and towering ungulates that included the vast majority of the Caldera critters. Somewhere along the way, she'd become so accustomed to hunting rats in the tunnels that she'd never taken the time to try for anything larger than a rabbit, like a fox or a coyote.

While Towhee paused to investigate the tree line, Alyx delved directly into them. Like her mom, she didn't expect to find a trail out in the open, so she was surprised when the Sovereign called her back. The odour Towhee found was pungent enough that she withdrew from it with a muttered, gross, before leaning back in to inspect it more readily. If she knew what cheese was, she would compare this to a particularly ripe chunk of it.

Don't think so, she said, wracking her brain to think if she'd even heard that name before. Pork was familiar... Is it like... A pig that lives in the pines? I'd be down for that.
