Broken Antler Fen Antlers and Furs

The herd grazed for what it could pull from beneath the snow and from the edges of rocks. They were lean but they carried enough meat on their bodies to fill stomachs with warmth.

Kannoyak watched them from his place in the brush. His eyes studied the same two deer that Rodyn had picked out. The doe would offer the most risk. She looked as though her lean muscle could spring and flee at any moment. The older deer did not have the same sure step in her hooves. The white hunter knew that they would need to focus the doe on the outside of the herd.

One ear swiveled toward her so that Rodyn would know his selection. Kannoyak then moved to circle around and block her path from escaping into the trees.
