Redsand Canyon (Nothing but) ashes...

By the end of day four, Towhee’s body screamed for a break. But she still had a lot to do, much to prove, and so she took a quick dip in the creek and emerged from the water with a shout that echoed off the canyon walls.

She still had two Auxillia to meet: @Diesel and @Glaukos. Shivering, teeth chattering, Towhee headed to the Sparring Arena and began running laps around it to chase the chill from her blood. As she ran, she wondered if it might be fun to oversee a spar between the two remaining soldiers.

When she felt warm and limber, she slowed to a trot, then to a walk. As soon as she had the breath to spare, she summoned them with an obnoxious howl.
