Bear with me, here, I know there really sin't much of the wya of plant life available. HE A GOOD SCAVENGAR.
Draped over the cliff edge was a curtain of stone that rippled and teased the trees at the edge of the forest, thrusting it's boulders and rocks amongst the roots. Perhaps one day the mountain would swallow the forest entirely, the lowly wolf mused as he paused for a moment beside the wall, strange roots in his mouth. Now, he said, turning his attention aside, Where is it again? Gently, he placed the strange looking roots at his feet and lifted his muzzle to the sky.
This time, when he drank deeply from the air it meant something. The breeze spoke to him. It carried the stories of this poor land whose past, he could sense, was fraught with pain. These wolves he lived with — they had not been the first; they would not be the last. The red man sighed, wondering how he could have been so blind to the world that lived in the wind, the world that his nostrils could read and his eyes and his heart could not. How could he have denied this part of himself for so long? There was no sin in this sense. He was only using what God had given him. I won't take it for granted, Pangur, I swear. His exhale was heavy, the steam of his breath swirling from his nostrils and disturbing the roots he had set before his paws.
Ah, yes. The roots.
Once more he picked them up and started off again. He trotted close to the wall, his ginger fur brushing against the time worn stone. From time to time, he would stop and glance upward at the cliff-side as if looking for something, then shake his head and continue on. It was some time before he finally stopped, pausing where there were a number of tumbled boulders. Here, he began to scramble upwards, bounding from rock to rock piled up against the wall. Eventually, this path gave way to a cavern that had been worn into the cliff side. Cautiously, the red man stepped in side the dark, fairly shallow cavern. It was cold in here, surrounded by stone that never saw the light of day. But it was dry at least, and it would keep his small collection safe.
Carely, he laid the shriveled, tangled mess in his jaws in a pile next to several other piles of assorted things. There was a pile of shriveled yellow flowers, and a clutch of some dark berries, and a collection of something like wheat, and a bundle of spiderweb. Now, Kiche wasn't really quite sure what any of these things did... but he had smelled them on Elettra before. He had caught glimpses of them in her den in Grizzly Hollow. He figured they were probably worth collecting if Elettra had bothered to keep them around at all. She didn't seem like someone who would waste.
Once more, he took a deep breath and steps out towards the entrance to cavern. Slowly, he lifted his head to the sky and let out a bellowing cry. His howl was distinct —a strange mixture of scream and shout. Kiche had never learned just precisely how the heathens made their music, but his improvisation wasn't that far off.
