Gone.Disappeared for some reason, as though into the mist which rose from the ground in moist veils in the morning light around the lake. Sagacity had gone to get a drink warily, knowing that at one point, there were wolves who inhabited the area who were hostile toward those of Nomad's Pass. But presently, there were no scents- so she roved the area until she found herself trailing along very weak scent marks- the marker of a pack which had fallen and had disbanded.
Poison Path was no more.
It was news that was almost too good to be true- something she would need to report to Naira as soon as possible. Her tiny scouting mission- simply to gather any new information she could- was becoming quite fruitful already. She intended to be gone no more than a few days, having left food for Mercy to eat and the instructions that he was not to leave the mountain without an adult. Though she''d only been gone for a day, she could hardly contain her pleasure at discovering that their nemeses were gone.
Proudly her tail swung above her back- she didn't know what had caused the wolves to disband, but she did not particularly care. If someone could tell her, the information would be useful- but for now, beaming with pride for the pack which had lasted further into the future, Sagacity moved along the lake's edge without a hint of reservation in her stride.
