Over the River and Through the Woods

The feast had gone well, at least she thought so, which made her very happy. Everything leading up to today had felt like so much work and was a bit overwhelming, but now that it was finally here it was rewarding to see it all come together. They had feasted and celebrated on through the evening and the next morning she had gathered up the wolves that had expressed interest in the race she had prepared and led them over to the beginning of the course. The path had been roped off with strips of fabric that were held together by steaks stuck into the ground. From where she was standing her and the other participants could see a portion of the track that curved around the edge of the lake, but once it went up into the trees it became difficult to see.

She stood to the side of the track, waiting for the participants to take their positions. She had been afraid that she wouldn't make the track wide enough, but fortunately there wasn't a ton of participants so she didn't have to worry about that too much. She knew Ricin fairly well and she recognized Duchess from the week the violet woman had spent with them. Kione was a new face for her, but she knew he came from that pack in Auster that they had visited when they were still a band. "Okay! When I give the signal, all of you will follow the track and race to see who can get to the end fastest. There might be some obstacles to look out for..." she hinted with a little smirk. She waited for them to ready themselves and then counted down, saying, "On three... One... Two... Three!"
