The first morning waking up in their new home was quiet.
The sense of awe at having a place to stay that they can call their own was still fresh in their minds. Standing together, everyone was eager to start the day.
Xeno stood before the pack, his frame silhouetted by the dawn. His face was unusually solemn.
"Our first day in a new home. This is the place we will build. Today we hunt. We claim the land as our own." His gaze drifted to Visha. "After the hunt, our priestess will perform a tribal blessing for us and the land that belongs to us."
The group split into two. All the males, including Krag, will participate in the hunt. It is both a way of bonding and a step in letting the animals know that predators have entered the caldera.
Shifting, they went to look for prey. They moved stealthily among the trees and foliage. Their targets are the deer-like creatures Xeno had noticed when he first arrived. He noticed they had a specific grazing ground.
