Buff-a-low

The earthen girl walks slowly through the hills that she and Lotus have taken temporary residence in. Before they make their trip up north, the pair had decided to gather some hides and food. Lotus has given her a reason to go on and Terra does not want to be a burden to him. The fact that he is not next to her has fear and doubt swirling through her mind but the girl is determined to bring back something great for them.

Black nose tilts up and gently scents the air, finding a herd of the large buffalo close by… along with a pack wolf. Terra pauses, uncertainty and distrust tugging at her mind, the constant worry dropping a rock of dread in her gut. However, the need to prove her worth has her pushing past any lingering doubt as she moves to join the other wolf.

Long legs pull her to the top of the hill where a huge brute lay in the grass and the lithe girl moves up next to him. Softly settling into the grass, the earthen wolf spies the small herd with their young charge. Emerald eyes move over to the purple male, fear swelling at just how huge he is but Terra tempers down her worry to whisper, “I am a good runner. How about I chase the young one toward you and you take it down?”

An eyebrow arches in question as she tries to keep the anxiety and doubt from showing on her features. She isn’t sure how successful she is as her green gaze looks with his. To keep herself from running away, Terra repeats a mantra in her head, ‘Not all wolves are bad’. Hopefully, today is not the day to prove her mantra wrong.
