all in a day's time

Quote:

Mirabelle Talos stood at the edge of the territory, head tilted. To pass... or not to pass. She could smell the sent markers - so so fresh, and very few old scents below the freshness. This territory was recently claimed. That rather surprised her, for everything she could see was so lush and full of life. A wolf's paradise.



Her mouth watered. It had been a while since she had eaten. Prey, for some darn reason, kept escaping from her paws like a slippery fish. She sighed. She knew the truth; she just wasn't that good at hunting. She never had been. Her strength was in fighting. She excelled. She could beat everything and everyone that challenged her. At least, she could before. Before. Maybe not now. She didn't know.



Shaking off thoughts - and the memories that rose unbidden to her mind from them - she stepped into the territory, over the scent markers and let out a howl, tipping her head back. She was curious of the pack that claimed this. There didn't seem to be many of them, and they seemed strong. And in need of more strength. Maybe she would luck out, and her assumptions would be right.



For once.
