As Promised

While out patrolling the previous day, Resin had stumbled upon a fascinating sight. A small group of elk were picking their way across the plains. She supposed that the bitter cold of winter had pushed them farther south than they were used to. It worked for her. The grey and black woman had promised her son an elk hunt and it seemed that the hunt had come straight to their door.

Before the sun even rose, Resin roused Rudyard from sleep. Hopefully he'd gotten enough of it because today wasn't going to be easy. Elk were difficult beasts at the best of times. The ground outside was still frozen and crunchy. The temperature was bitter cold. By now, most wolves winter pelts started thinning out, but not this year. Auster was freezing. She could only imagine how bad things were further north.

With Rudy at her side, the ashen fae loped out of the castle and onto the plains. She searched for the area where she'd seen the elk the day prior. Nose to the ground, it was difficult to pick up scents with the ground so cold. Steam rose from the woman's nose and maw as she scented. In the end, it wasn't scent that led her to them, but a bugle; a telltale sign that they were nearing their prey. The scarred woman's voice was low and quiet as she instructed her son. "When we near the edge of the hill, don't let yourself be seen. Simply observe them. See what their movements and behaviors teach you."
