Wild Berry Meadow dig that hole, forget the sun

When the pair of them paused, looked out at the distant forest that had once been their home, there was a moment of peace. Quiet reflection. Maybe even sorrow. Titmouse could remember everything he had been put through - some of it foggy, but still present - and he wasn't sure about how he felt when he saw those dark trees standing tall just beyond them. He didn't notice the encroaching figure behind them (Flicker) until he felt something shift in the snow near his flank, and he turned sharply to meet it. Upon noticing the woman, he felt his fur bristle with uncertainty. However before he could do anything he heard Maegi speak - and this drew him away from any immediate dangers behind them.

He looked to where she was staring and saw the malformed silhouette of some kind of creature; he didn't recognize it as a wolf initially, it was too blunt, like a piece was missing. He edged his way closer to Maegi just in case she needed him to intervene, but he would wait for her reaction before he did anything - always, eternally, her's to command.
