It's a Prickly Situation

It was unnatural for her to be so far north, but Ana had found herself growing bored of the southern continent. Amon had grown silent, doing whatever it was, but either way he hadn't called for the family in a while. Everyone seemed to be taking the procreating thing rather seriously. First Pyralis, and then she hadn't missed Amon's call either. He was already on his second litter and she only had Aby. Her nose wrinkled at the thought. It was disappointing really. The elder sibling and she only had one child, one that wasn't even hers, and yet she was too picky to just bare any males children. She imagined it would be a while before she found a suitor. She wanted nothing but the best lines, especially since she hadn't inherited the family's height. They had to be impressive in other ways to make up for it. For now she had set the thought of children aside and had instead headed north. The cool weather bit into her short pelt but it was so much more enjoyable than the heat that had gripped Auster. Cold was so much more pleasing than sunburn for her delicate skin. There was so much of the northern continent that was left to explore and many locals to terrorize. With Adra off doing whatever it was he deemed more important than her ... well boredom and Ana wasn't a good mix. The havoc she wanted to create could barely be contained. She found herself in a rather wooded area, but the trees contained none of the glory of the giant oak trees at home. It was still a refreshing change of pace for her as she padded silently through the forest. Signs of a tussle soon caught the pallid female's attention and the thought of entertainment was too good to pass up. She neared the struggling pup just as he was bashed in the face by the porcupines quills. She waited behind a tree as she watched in silence. The pup had spunk, she'd give him that, despite the fact he was a mortal. He got quills again, this time to the leg, before he finally smartened up and figured out how to kill it. When it was all said and done he had quills sticking out of him and was obviously hurt, but he'd managed to kill it. She still had no idea who he'd been talking to but she didn't smell anyone nearby, just the scents of a pack on his coat. Content that no one would bother he she padded from her hiding spot and moved closer to the kid with a sweet smile plastered to her face. "Would you like some help sweetie?" She of course was talking about the quills stuck in his face and leg. He'd have issues getting them out on his own and it'd give her the opportunity to get close to him. Information was always easy to get out of a child. Young, impressionable, and easily persuaded. It was the perfect opportunity for her. Walk, "Talk" Think |
