Ræsa decided she liked to take her meals somewhere with a view. It was so hard to confine oneself within the borders on border patrols and this evening she'd found herself climbing higher and higher into the Mile-High woods, dead hare clasped in her jaws. It's coat was already white and plush, prepared for the harsh season ahead. So far it hadn't been so bad, but it would also be her first. Her paw slipped in a pile a of slush and she lurched sideways. Vertigo clutched her gut as she stared down at the earth far below her paws. Behind her Bodolf hissed. "Would you watch it? I'm not about to drag your mangled pile of mush back to your sisters." Ræ scoffed around the rodent. Maybe it was just Bo's way of worrying but he could be an utter nag at times. Well, she didn't need his floofy tail to stay balanced! She came to rest at the crux of three branches; where one tree had fallen upon two who had grown at odds. It had built up with small branches and leaf litter and eventually moss until a makeshift seat could be had. Ræ crowed her victory upon seeing it, picking up the pace and forcing Bo to hiss yet again. She walked across it's surface tentatively, but her paw on punched through twice so she decided it was stable enough. Bo dug his claws into the wood of the branch, where it was more secure. Ræ peered over the edge again, now that she could look down with some measure of safety. Below her the world was dusted with a fine layer of snow, though not much had made it through the lead cover. The ground was maybe twenty body lengths below her; certainly not a distance she wanted to fall. She decided to forget about it, and began tearing into her meal. |
