Tayui hunkered down low to watch Eris as she surveyed her surroundings. Tayui realized it was likely only her deathly white coat that kept Eris from seeing her, for there was very little cover nearby. Tayui resisted the urge to move and instead waited for Eris to disappear from sight. She would track Eris by smell, hanging back, until she could safely confront the other woman. She didn't want to engage her near the ruins since there were likely other canines nearby. Her children, too, would be only steps away and Tayui did not want Eris to think that she was after her children. Tayui wanted to see Eris -- not Harrow, Salvia or any of them -- harmed.[/html]
Once she thought it safe, Tayui slowly pulled herself to her feet. She streaked after the woman quickly and quietly. Her large paws let her tread over, rather than through, the snow. She followed Eris' scent for a few minutes until she thought she saw a black blur in the distance. Quickly, she hid behind a thin tree, observing from a distance. Stealing a few breaths, Tayui moved on again to find the woman.
"Eris," she called out once she was near. "I've come for you at last." [html]
