Ominous silent blanketed the forest and almost simultaneously the sun hid it's face behind the clouds. It was then Shilah caught the scent of cougar. It made his fur stand on end both with fear and awe. The great cats were sacred to him. Great spirits of hunting and of courage and he'd never seen one before in his life. Ever. Mountain lions were also guardians of the northern direction in his mothers old legends. They possessed powerful medicine and vast wisdom and were also associated with the afterlife. Living ghosts. Nearly perfectly silent?


"Why do your kind insist on invading my territory?"


Shilah jumped whirling around to find himself gazing at the magnificent cat, her golden eyes boring right into him. He was certain his mouth had fallen agape as he tried to answer her.


"Forgive me, Great one" he said bowing deeply, uncertain how to act around one such as she. "I was wondering in search of medicinal plants when I found this forest, but I see it's majesty is nothing compared to yours. Had I known a spiritess of the hunt resided here I would have shown greater respect."
