The bad weather had not let up at all, leaving the sea roiling and angry as Hanako watched it from the safety of a sand embankment. Usually flooding wasn't something she concerned herself with, but the way the waves were rushing up the beach and inching closer and closer with each inward sweep had her wringing her paws nervously. Many of the other dens in the Armada hadn't faired so well and Hanako had gotten smug on the knowledge hers remained intact, a fact mother nature seemed to determined to rectify. Wagging her proverbial finger as though to say, oh you thought!

Leaping down from the sandy crest, Hanako galloped along the shoreline, the water already riding up to her shins as she pushed herself into full stride. She was fast on her paws, always had been, but Hanako knew she couldn't outrun the ocean. If it wanted to claim her den and make it all waterlogged then there was little she could do but try and save as many of her valuable as she could. There was plenty she wanted to keep, soft furs and hides caught and prepared by Azure himself, along with little trinkets, odds and ends of sentimental value. Far too much for her alone to retrieve all in one go.

She was panting as she scrambled to the mouth of her den, paws grasping at her furs as she tried to haul them outside. The water was steadily rising and the waves foamy as they slammed ever closer, causing Hanako to stumble a little as she almost lost her footing. She didn't know where to start or what to grab next, she wanted it all and loathed having to choose. Enough to make her curse.
