Falls of the Hinterlands New Goodbye

Wraen returned Finbar's second call some 10 - 15 minutes later. She had sought out refuge in a small hollow behind a sturdy oak tree and sat down to regain her breath and let her racing heart calm down. Somewhere far off (and to her mind - a comfortable distance away) the noise of breaking ice, falling rocks and trees died down and then came silence. Only now did she recall that she had lost her companion and feeling guilty for abandoning him like that, got to her feet and looked around. 

The bark once and then for the second time made her leave her hiding place altogether and she responded to his call with few coarse barks of her own. "I am coming," she called and retraced her steps, until she caught sight of Finbar's black pelt and broke out into a run towards him. "Are you alright?" she asked, when she had come close enough and could give a quick once-over look just to be sure.
