Solveiga was on the move, her slender legs propelling her forward as she chased a rabbit through a forest full of young saplings, most of them not much taller than her. The rabbit had nowhere to hide, so now it was only a matter of her chasing it down. She kept powering forward, her small body making it easy to change direction when her prey did. She was hungry. She didn't have her brother hunting for her anymore. She needed to catch this rabbit.

But as she ran she caught in the air the scent of a stranger, and her steps faltered just enough to give the rabbit a chance to jump down into a burrow and Solveiga let out a quiet, disappointed grumble. As soon as the possibility of catching the rabbit was gone, she perked her ears and looked around warily for where the distracting scent had come from.
