All This Time

Now that he was settled in Dómari decided to do a bit of exploring in the west. He'd been focusing on his fighting abilities but eventually he'd need to assist with the hunting and it would be a good idea to get a grasp of the terrain. Most of it was arid and dry but there were a few patches that offered grazing options for prey animals.

He worked his way through the sweetgrass basin. There was still a lovely scent in the air and the grasses around him were turning lovely golden shades. He was so caught up in what he was doing that he almost missed the lioness that was stalking him. Just in time the wind brought her scent to his nose and he bolted forward as she leapt. Her claws raked across his hind end eliciting a yelp. He whirled around with a snarl defenses set. The lioness stared him down and sprang again. This time his jaws caught hold of her right hind leg.
