The Winterfell youth made his way towards the cove that sat on the opposite end of the northern lands from where he lived. He was out tracking a small herd of elk that had passed by the borders some time ago, and he wondered where they were heading. Not only that, but if he could track them enough to figure out where they would bed down for the night, perhaps he could gather up a couple of other pack members to go on a hunt tonight or early in the morning. Taking a deep breath, the salty air filled his nose and lungs as he followed the tracks towards the beach. It wasn't too hard to track them, luckily for him. He wasn't the best tracker in the pack (unlike his uncle Cloud), but he was learning. Upon reaching the black sands of the cove, however, the tracks he had been following had scattered in different directions, and he wasn't sure which one to follow. Brows knit together as he nearly pressed his nose to the sands, trying to figure out which scent to follow before ultimately just deciding to pick one and followed it. It led him on the edge of the beach line, neither heading towards the water nor back inland. Along the way, he noticed another set of prints from the same family seemed to regroup with the one he was following which he supposed was a good sign. Perhaps something had frightened them the first time...unless they figured out he was following them...little did he know, however, that the youth was also being followed by something equally as hungry and much larger than him in the water. "Speak"

Stjarna worked northward, seeking to explore a bit more of the northern regions before the winter came in and made the region even more difficult to traverse. Star peered down into a cove of black sand. It reminded him much of the Obsidian Beach though the sand here was duller and more matte. Though that could've been from the clouds covering he sky. Star trotted down to the beach and started walking along the coastline. Star couldn't help but walk closer until their paws were dancing through the chilly water. It was cold here in the north, much colder than it had been on the Obsidian Beach during the party.

Star was enjoying the walk so much that they didn't even notice when something big and dark stared swimming toward them. All of a sudden a massive leopard seal surged up out of the water. Fangs aiming right for the wolf. Star yelped in surprise and scrambled out of the way as the teeth snagged a clump of his fur and pulled it right out.

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn worked her way from the southern continent up the northern continent. She didn't really have a plan. She was just going wherever her feet took her. She loved the life of a wandering nomad. She worked her way down to a lush, dark beach. Her paws kneaded at he sand as she walked along until she spied something suddenly lunge out of the water. What the heck was that! She realized it was after a black and white wolf that she hadn't seen at first because he blended in so well with the sand. Sensing the danger she charged for the thing. Her long legs quickly ate up the distance between herself and the large, blubbering creature. Her head rocketed forward, fangs ripping into flesh. There was blood and a lot of fat. She didn't keep her hold long before the seal whipped its head around, trying to bite her. She quickly leapt away.

He hadn't noticed anyone else on the beach since he'd been focused on tracking the two prey animals he'd been following. It wasn't until he heard a sudden unusual crashing in the waves and the sounds of other wolves that his head jerked up and attention drawn to the commotion. His eyes widened at the sight of the sea creature that had jumped out of the water. It was a seal...right? Only this one was huge! He wasn't sure he'd seen one so big before, and he was definitely sure it wasn't a walrus. It took a few moments for him to decide what to do but ultimately decided what the hell. Maybe if he helped them take that monster down, he could get some food out of it or something. Racing towards them, Tyto snarled as he approached, throwing himself at the beasts flippers (tail?) where he grabbed on with his teeth and violently shook his head. "Speak"

Stjarna scrambled away from the beach, a little disturbed by the giant thing that had just attempted to eat them. Was this one of the things that they called a shark? Star had heard of sharks though there didn't seem to be a sharp dorsal fin to speak of. Star didn't get far when the creature made some bizarre noise. Glancing back Star saw a strange looking woman attack the marine beast. She bounded away and then another man dove at it, teeth latching onto a flipper. The seal's fangs dove for the wolf that had just bitten it. Star whirled back around, paws kicking up black sand as they ran, diving for the seal's other back flipper. Fangs ripped through flipper as the wolf tore into the flesh then bounded away as the seal whipped around, lunging for hem. Fangs attempted to seize the wolf's scruff but Stjarna just managed to stay ahead.

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn scrambled through the sand, her tail waving to help her keep her balance as another man attacked the seal followed by the first. The seal's head dove down for one of the men and as it did Jynn took a running start and leapt up for the seal's face. Her upper fangs sank into the seal's eyes and her lower fangs farther down its face. The seal let loose a horrid noise before it thrashed its head to the side. Jynn couldn't hold on, she was sent flying and landed right in the ocean. Sputtering she got her head above water and quickly started swimming toward shore. She had a horrible thought that there might be another one of those things in the water. She didn't want to get eaten by some freaky sea creature. She felt her paws touch the sandy and she quickly got her footing and surged out off the water.

The mega-seal beast was a tough opponent, he had to admit. He had managed to bite the flipper and soon enough, the black and white male had joined him but soon detached as the seal lunged towards them. Tyto snarled and released, bounding back to avoid the fangs though it was temporarily distracted by the other two. As the seal dove for them, however, the woman lunged for its face and seemed to effectively blind it with teeth and blood before it launched her into the water. Tyto's ears pressed to his skull as it emitted a horrible sound as he watched the woman land in the water and scramble out. While he was distracted himself, the seal thrashed in anger and pain, whacking him in the face with its tail and knocking him to the ground. He rolled into the sand for a brief moment before bouncing to his paws, ears ringing from the impact before he opted to go for an opening. As the seal turned its back, Tyto launched forward, leaping onto its back and digging his fangs into the thick blubber on the back of its neck as he held on for dear life. "Speak"

Star quickly leapt out of reach of the seal. Out of the corner of their mismatched eyes Stjarna saw the woman attack and then promptly get thrown into the water. The other man leapt onto the seal's back, fangs ripping into it and tearing flesh. Star leapt up to join the other man. The starlight wolf's fangs dug in deep as dig their claws though it was still difficult to hold on. The seal suddenly shook itself, thrashing to the side violently and Star lost their grip. Slipping from the seal they landed hard in the sand but it seemed the seal had had enough. It started to move, heading back toward the ocean. Star got to their feet and winced from the bruising they'd likely received from the attack. The seal suddenly twisted its head, snapping at him and Star leapt farther inland.

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn felt pain throb in her back and neck from having been throw so violently off the seal. Still she wasn't going to be put out of this fight so easily. The men leapt onto the seal's back and she dove in toward one of the already injured back flippers. Her fangs seized hold and she thrashed her head as she sought to worsen the damage and cripple the creature or at the very least get it to leave them alone. The assault of three wolves seemed to be doing the trick as the seal twisted and thrashed slowly turning its blubbery body back toward the sea. She let go. It thrashed again, snapped at one of the men then waddled back out into the water, going deeper and deeper until it finally disappeared back into the ocean. She breathed a sigh of relief, happy to see it go.
