I'm on your side

The heat of the summer sun combined with the heat of the hot springs had made Resin, well... hot. The giant woman retreated to the shade of the trees that surrounded the springs. The woods were misty with steam, but at least she was out of the direct heat. The woman had been working on the visitors dens yet again. Those of the pack would be responsible for building their own places of living.

When the howl came, Resin wasn't too far off. Rising from where she'd been laying, the Ashen woman shook the debris from her thick northern pelt. Her forelegs were coated with dirt and clay, but she wasn't worried about appearances. Resin had been working hard and there was no shame in that.

Thick legs carried the massive woman to the treeline where Ulric stood with a smaller woman. The one-eyed dame dipped her head slightly in greeting. "Ulric," she spoke in her gravelly tones. It had been a week since they'd spoken and here he was, true to his word. Good thing too. There was a lot of work to be done.
