xD S'all good~.
Deer. He could not remember how long it had been since he had even tried to go after one, much less eaten one. Pack hunts had been traditionally infrequent at home (it was a pile of ashes now) and the statistics humans had figured in their books about them had put their chances at one in ten anyway. But their wolven ancestors could not be compared to what they had become now, especially since he knew of a growing population amongst them who favored human weapons such as spears, knives, and arrows to hunt and kill. Sometimes, he still wondered how they would all turn out in the end. He had wanted to see the apocalypse and in a way, he had, but it would seem as if they were living on. Well, the humans were too, somewhere.
Laruku nodded and turned, making his way carefully through the trees. Yesterday's conversations were already fading into the locked closet of memories, but operating on instinct was easy enough. His nose knew how to find food and his feet knew how to follow his nose, scarred as they both were. And though he continued to think of the forest as a strange and foreign place in his head, it was difficult to deny the familiarity that had already developed in the few days he had spent there. Well, it may as well be home now -- it was a small radius and he wasn't interested in exploring further. Maybe it was just a retirement home.
The hybrid stopped rather abruptly at a set of deer tracks.

These are kind of fresh,he mumbled, mostly to himself. He eyed them a moment, then continued in the direction they were headed. Shortly afterwards, a small group of animals could be spotted in a lush meadow. There were two males, four females, and two fawns, all with heads to the ground and rather oblivious seeming.
There.
