Stone Circle Hunter

She had smelled coyote intermingled with wolf as often as she made her patrols around Stone Circle, and had seen the boy around. Taktuq had never lived with coyotes before - at least, not as part of a pack. The concept was foreign to her, but she had heard of wolves living that way of life before. Now, it became one she would have to learn to embrace if she were to help lead the creatures Sanja had brought under their care.

Taktuq watched the boy from a distance, laid low so as not to distract him nor disturb him from his clear hunt. Seeing what kind of hunter he was. Genuinely curious to discover. A butterfly drifted on lazy wings, and the grasses ruffled in the sweet summer breeze.
