Ravensblood Forest Is where you go to rest your bones

Set for around this time, give or take!

Fennec was sure that @Alyx was around somewhere, though she did not worry too much about tracking her sister specifically whenever they wandered apart.  She knew that she wouldn't be going far and that her sister would find her once they were ready to move forward.

Fennec had taken a heavy interest in nosing for plants as they went, and while she sought a trail for something to snack on, she also kept her nose peeled for anything that smelled like it might be interesting and/or useful.  Medicinal plants tended to have a sharp tone to them that separated them from others.  

Travel was still not something she was entirely comfortable with, and doubtless it never would be comfortable.  She loved it for the challenge, the chance to experience new places and things, and for the feeling of freedom it gave her.  But every night spent away and every step further from familiar ground lent it's own kind of paranoia.  She knew beyond a shadow of a doubt there were things here that could easily bring her down and kill her, and without Alyx around, that risk was twofold.  Even when she was searching for prey, her ears were rotating on high alert, taking in the birdsong around her and the sounds of the wind in the pines.  She could feel the brush of their needles on her pelt; the forest felt dense, which did help some.  

She found a burrow before she found any plants worth looking at.  It was probably too early in the year, which sucked, but she could always talk someone into bringing her back this way once the weather was nicer.  Her stomach growled and she smirked.  No disappointment here.  She started to dig, hoping whatever it was was still inside and didn't have a back exit.  It felt like a small enough hole; she could take it so long as she could reach it.
