Blackfeather Woods calls the faithful to their knees

Flicker waited to be shown the door.
Nothing came.
Instead, Maegi turned her back and started walking away.
"That's right. Run away like always Maegi."

The woman laughed, her position still high and commanding. She'd seen little of that in Maegi. Whatever she thought of it, it made her look weak to not do so. And she always seemed to walk away: The fall of the woods, when Flicker had tried to stop her, and now.
The woman turned side on from Maegi, making it somewhat easier to see if she came charging back and to not expose her throat so cleanly, and howled a challenge. She half wanted @Wintersbane to answer it but also wanted Maegi to turn around. If she wanted to stay here, Flicker would have to be beaten down to the ground for it.
