Bitter Cold
Winter seemed to roll in over night, or at least blizzard conditions. Blinding snow blanketed the ground, making most areas look the same to someone without knowledge of the lands. Wind rolled through the seemingly uncharted area, sweeping up snow in a beautiful flurry as if to intensify the already falling snow and weather conditions. It was freezing, hunger was finally taking its toll, and Lleh didn't know where she was. White fur blended in perfectly against the frozen background, making the canine seem as ghost like as she nearly sounded. Paws carefully hit the ground, pushing her large body forward in a weird trotting motion, attempting to be quiet against the crunching snow. Ruby eyes scanned the terrain placed before herself, attempting to find signs of any life that traversed these lands since the blizzard conditions set in. Skull lowered towards the ground, pink merled nose flaring to take in fading scents, and suddenly her posture changed. Lleh's tattered ears perked forward, curled tail once hanging low now stood tall and nearly touching her spine. Finally! Prey wasn't far, and with hunger driving her forward without any second thought, she just sprinted. Trees and rock passed by in a blur, eyes and mind set on one goal. A small prey scent that was picked up. This left the albino canine completely unguarded for once in her life, but these conditions where completely new to her. Right after a fresh meal, a shelter would be necessary, but without vast familiarity of these areas.. That was going to prove to be difficult.
