Quick! Before the Hyena Come!

Natha continued to gaze up at the creature, getting familiar with the smell and sight of her. The creature, who introduced herself as Kamilah, didn't seem terribly comfortable with Natha's presence. Did they have lynx where she was from? Ah so she was a horse. Ok, that was interesting. Natha committed the word to memory. It felt familiar but she couldn't place where she'd heard the word before. She was fairly certain though that she'd never seen one up close in person before.

Natha shook her head as she leaned up against one of the posts that formed the mine frame. She rubbed the side of her face along the post for a moment. "No, I don't. We cats prefer to live separately in most cases. And I would never live here. This place reeks of hooman work." She balanced on one of the metal rails that lead deeper down into the mine shaft.
