Their run in with a feline out by the stone steppe had given them a fun kick off for their day together and they had simply kept that theme rolling as they continued to move north through Boreas and into the mountains. The bear in the mountains had given them a tougher challenge than the cat had, but with Saracyn beside her she felt invincible. They worked together so well it was just like breathing. It was something she had always known, but more recently with the steadily growing pack pulling her attention she hadn't been able to live it as much as she would have liked. Now it was just the two of them against the world and she was having a great time.
As they came down out of the mountains they passed through a section of oddly formed caves, the passages more perfect and flat along their walls than she was used to caves being. The tunnels were dark, but the faint glow from the markings that framed either of their eyes gave just enough light to make out turns on the path or things in their way so they wouldn't run into them. Up ahead she could see the light where the opening of the mine was waiting for them, but before they got to that she heard a sound behind her, like someone had bumped into something or something had fallen over. She paused, looking back over her shoulder for a moment with a frown. "What was that?" she asked softly, her whispered voice echoing around them.
