A Knight in Invisible Armor

The tall dame wandered out onto the beautiful plains, her violet eyes shining with joy. Such a place, it was so much like her home, and yet so different at the same time. The giantess' large ears rotated as a mouse scuffled a few of her long strides to the front of her. Pinpointing the creature, the black footed canid lifted her front paws to her chest and launched herself to the exact location with her strangely long rear legs. Fiery red was all that would be glimpsed as the strange woman landed directly on top of the shrew, her small ebony paws crushing it neatly and bloodlessly. Picking up the small rodent, she quickly shredded it into bite sized pieces and snapped them up in turn. A few more tiny beings were caught and devoured, and then the giant creature laid herself down in the tall grasses, feeling content in a place that seemed so much like home.

After a long rest, the dame picked herself up and trotted over to a meandering river that snaked through the plains. Lowering her delicate cranium to the edge of the aqua, she lapped it up with her salmon tongue. Resting on her haunches at the water's edge, she panted a bit and stared out at the vast expanse of beautiful plains. Lifting her powerful nose to the air, she tested it for scents of a nearby pack. There seemed to be one, faint, but if it was in this subtropical, warm environment, she would gladly join. She wasn't cut out for the cold, at all. Neither was she made for heavy forests, so she would have to see if she could find a place like this to stay. These thoughts ran about in her mind while she sat on the bank of the river, and awaited what came next.
