When I see the light
Ochre

Big, powerful jaws wrapped around the neck of a recently killed antelope. Ochre, a relatively new member to the pack, was bringing it back to add to the food stores. Spring was already warm and he imagined summer might be even warmer. If they had enough dried meat to last them, then the pack could take off a day or more of hunting during the most sweltering days. The black and blonde brute had just settled down to give his tired jaws a break when a snow white form went zipping by. Forest green eyes widened for a moment as he looked after the running woman. Was something chasing her? Instantly the naturally protective man was on his paw, eyes alert and pelt bristled as he looked for the danger. Then he heard her laugh. His brow furrowed as he watched her talk to a bird that landed in front of her. At least there hadn't been any danger. Since she'd run in the direction that he was going, Ochre hefted the antelope in his jaws once more, dragging it with him as he approached the girl. He cleared his throat to announce his presence before releasing the ungulate from his grasp. "Greetings, he said in polite yet strong tones. I don't believe we've met." The man dipped his head in a bow to the woman and her bird. "I'm Ochre Kvasir. Mate to Daelos and father to Elba and Aslaug. Who might you be?" "Speech" |
