is it still intruding if you fall in?

Theory had seen the stranger tumble from the shore of the island, but it was so far away that she had thought it was a seabird taking to the waves below. She had paid it no mind as she continued her lazy patrol of the island's borders. Although the raid still weighed heavily on her mind, she was trying to stay positive. How many warriors could they have? Acere was formidable, but who else could they expect to be up against? Grumbling to herself, Theory was so lost in her own thoughts that she almost tripped over the waterlogged form of Zee.

She sprang back, her hackles raised, but she had a curious tilt to her head and her ears were perked with interest. "Hello, miss? Are you alright?" No one showed up this worse for wear with bad intentions. Theory kept her distance just in case and gave a short, sharp bark back towards the treeline. Alouette sprang from the branches and soared towards her mistress, alighting on the sands nearby. The bird kept her sharp eyes on Theory waiting for any further instructions.
