Redhawk Caldera Chaconne

She was out of breath by the time she reached the flat summit of the Caldera, and took a few moments to rest before she set off, making a beeline for where Fennec had been holed up, taking care of Alyx and Bronco. The winds had fallen quiet but the snow continued to fall, silently accumulating on the ground and settling onto the branches of evergreen trees, weighing them down. She brushed past a few as she went, shaking the burden of snow onto the ground, sending the branches slinging up and down as they bounced, free of the weight they'd been holding onto. 

She didn't want to stress Bronco or Alyx out, no matter how keen she was to see them. She'd just been through hell and back and her mind was still a whirl. Light-headed from exhaustion and bloodloss, she chuffed for @Fennec, hoping she was at home. She sank to the ground, still puffing softly from the exertion.
