Forgotten is the race that no-one knows

True, Aurora had caught Narfi's scent, but she had assumed it was old. The territory was neutral (as far as she knew), wouldn't others pass through? She had been naming constellations when female's head entered her field of vision, snarling at her and demanding to know what she was doing. Arayne had already blundered into other's territory before, but she was getting sick of being chased out. She rolled back onto her stomach, surveying the black female with both annoyance and suspicion. "Uh, stargazing?" she replied. She was reminded of meeting Cattina in her ship den, and getting a similar reception. Was every relatively nice place staked out here? She hadn't found any scent marks.

While she had behaved submissively towards Cattina, at least at the start, she refused to let herself be cowed by this stocky brat. She was a princess, after all.
