Redhawk Caldera i hit the ground running each night

sorana cooed and ran off. teya dashed after her and gathered the girl back. "good hunting," she grunted to her baby daughter, "but bad bite." she clicked her teeth. "raccoon have nasty mouth. make sick."
the rodent had surely dashed on by now, and so she released sorana and went back to the trail. "look," she murmured, pointing out the tracks of the little animal. "smell."
she was beginning to enjoy this, she decided. sorana could be taught now. she could understand. and one day soon she would be able to talk back to teya. that was worth a lot.
