Oooo Minty!

Ari had been stalking through the grass, playing at being a mighty warrior on a raid, when voices and the smell of smoke caught her attention. Abandoning her game, she began bounding through the grass until she crashed through to see Gossy and her fox friend by the fire she'd scented. She smelled something else, a sweet-sharp-cold scent that came from the leaves Gossy was poking at. "Hey, Gossy! What are you doing?" She meandered closer, alight with curiosity. She ignored the fox, as being followed by her parents' and elder siblings'companions was so normalized by this time that the not-wolves were practically like furniture - just there. Up to this point she hadn't seen one contribute more than tattling and curbing her mischief, so her attention didn't stray towards Gossy's pet either.
