For dear @Wraith
All my possessions for a moment of time. - Elizabeth I
If there was something she could appreciate, it was a wolf that pulled their weight. (@Isuni)Capable chanced upon a fresh meal in the snows, and while she could not manage to get there herself, she had been grateful for her call, and any pressure eased on the caches aided them all. @Skoll continued his nightly rounds, letting her rest a little easier when she thought to close her eyes, however briefly, and @Craw and @Wraith's assistance in not only patrolling the borders, but also hunting, had not gone unnoticed by Morganna.
It was with the latter in mind that she had headed to the Rise, a few rare moments afforded to her with Angier's failing sight and her own mothers advancing age putting additional strain on her. The realisation had instilled an undeniable need to do better, and to make them proud. Monitoring the herds of caribou and deer just gave her an excuse to take her time. After all, she didn't want to scare them away.
@Nicolò's threats may have been little more than a niggle at the back of her mind but they soured her mood none the less. More than half their current members had been accepted, if not recruited by herself or Skoll, and @Elettra had shown no sign of disapproval with the way she had been handling things (truthfully if it was the case, she fully expected her mother to hand her ass to her, so she still trod lightly - this was still her mothers pack in all but practical terms). She was drawn from her own thoughts by a dark smudge on the horizon. No prey in sight, nor scent range and she felt secure in releasing a bark of greeting as she increased her speed to a steady lope. Only now realising it was unusual to see him without Craw in sight.
