Redtail Rise rise with the sun

With the boulder man off hunting on the trail, the rest of the pack didn't hunker down and wait; they were w hornet's nest that had just been bothered, and they prepared now to swarm the one who had caused all this tension. Lilia roved, picking fights with anyone who was willing to spar, and had fixed her thirst for violence upon prey which she hunted down incessantly, wanting to make sure she had plenty of energy and as much muscle as she could possibly put on before the call came. 

She sniffed around, and spotted a pale feature in the distance- it wasn't one of the quiet children, but their mother. Her scent still smelled of Augur's, which was both bittersweet and reassuring. She hoped the man was safely able to perform his mission, and return without a scratch. She liked him; he was brave, but also caring. 

The woman's gait had shifted, so Lilia sped up to follow along the trail she'd left behind- which mingled with the tracks left behind by cloven hooves. Lilia flicked her tongue over her nose to wet it, and surged forward so she might hover along as New Snow's shadow, a quiet chuff announcing her arrival and willingness to cooperate.
