the circle of life

Taiga · 01-29-2022, 05:30 PM

The day was warm and breezy so Taiga had cut off from the rest of the group to hunt. She'd been away for a few hours and her belly was now full of boar meat. The giantess was full and content, practically purring with satisfaction as she made her way back to the herd. The sun afternoon sun beat down upon the dark rosettes of her back and she closed her eyes from time to time, simply enjoying the warm feeling.

A far off sound met the woman's ears and she stopped in her tracks. Had she imagined it? The sound was gone and she had been very distracted by the day. Taiga had almost shrugged it off and began soaking up the sun again when a second bellow reverberated across the land. There was no mistaking the call this time. It was Rannoch. The sound was one of warning. One of panic. Taiga panicked indeed. Whatever was happening to send him into such a state, would she be there in time to stop it?

The giant cat threw her weight into her paws, tearing across the landscape in the direction of the cove. Her heart slammed against her ribcage and she fought to breathe, but she couldn't afford to stop. And faltering in per pace could mean the elk's death, or the death of Oscar or Kyren. No... she had to run. She had to. The lioness ran and ran and soon the salty scent of the ocean met pink nares. She was close, but was she in time?
