Myrika is by Titmouse!
Myrika saw some canines seemed to be fleeing. Some were on foot, others were on horseback. They were wolves, all of them, for Inferni and Salsola both seemed intent on entering the burning camp. The tawny woman pulled her horse to a stop for a moment and glared over the scenery. Cahal was nervous beneath her; he trembled at the scent of smoke and blood, the noisy din of ongoing battle. Perhaps she might let him go -- he knew Inferni and his home well enough to find his way back. She didn't need a panicking horse beneath her -- she'd have time to shift into Secui form, after all.
She saw a tawny figure emerge from the camp, splashed with red, and her heart leaped. Thoughts of leaving Cahal forgotten, Myri pressed at the horse's sides and stroked at his neck and shoulder, murmuring comforts all the while. Perhaps this would be enough to temper the stallion's fear. For a moment, it did not work, and the horse stood, still trembling and glaring with the whites of his eyes showing toward the source of the chaos. But Myrika was not asking him to go there -- she directed him to the side, and the big bay horse soon understood his mistress's intent. If horses could be relieved, her horse was.
She did not see the other pale form making her way toward the clearing and Vesper, but she arrived about the same time as the white wolf. The woman was already injured, a chunk of her ear missing. Her fur was also singed in places, but she seemed otherwise unharmed. Myrika hunkered low on Cahal and made a split-second decision, sliding from the horse's back. She slapped him on the hindquarters and he was all too happy to flee, turning around on his heels and making a beeline for Inferni. Saule was armed with a sword, and Myri had only her small dagger and the stick, but Vesper had even less. Watch out, she called out, swinging the stick in a wild arc. It slapped harmlessly against the woman's armored shoulder, but it had drawn her attention away from Vesper and onto Myri, which was the intent anyway.
