Lion Head Mesa infidel

set during senmut + mesen-ka's visit to the lake.

When he descended the steppes it was to chase the pronghorn lingering just out of reach. Soon the arid terrain became flat red land, and he could spy red stone jutting from it.

Reminded of the coyote-home he had visited before, Drusk was intrigued. He wondered what he might find here, his belly rumbling.

As he crossed beneath the red arches he found scents in the dirt (mostly fresh, mostly wolf) and decided to roll there, to gather it to himself and wear it.

He carried on, finding deep shadows to hide himself in, but the sun moved quickly as if it were a giant eye watching his transgression of the sands.
