Andara had been fairly close to the lake when she'd heard the first call. She knew it was meant for Lilin, but the voice sounded so pained that the girl couldn't help but satisfy her curiosity. Four slim, thinly-muscled legs wove her through the underbrush, and she arrived to see Lilin already on the scene. The young hybrid stayed hidden from sight as she rested on her haunches, keeping trees and sand between her friend and the huddled shape. The fur was familiar, but Andy didn't think she'd met the chocolate woman yet. She bore only a small part of her tail, the girl noticed, and the scent of blood tickled Andy's nose; she was hurting.


It wasn't long before Lilin let out a call of her own. Andara hung back still, lingering in the cover of the trees while she watched. After all, what could she do? She didn't know how to dress a wound, though the captain had once told her that salt water could cleanse them. It still didn't seem too helpful, and the pack was sure to have a healer that could help her. Andy thought of Miskunn, and wondered if she was nearby.


As if she had known, the familiar voice of the Godja came shortly after, and Andy's small, dark ears pressed hard against her skull. This was more serious than she thought. Bright lilacs flickered as more arrived on the scene; one who looked very much like Lilin. Andara stared at him for a long moment before she rose and moved in. The worry was clear on her face, knowing only that if Lilin was upset, she should be, too. Her gaze followed the injured woman and rested on the Virding, questioning. Her silence was sustained; Andara did not know enough to ask any questions.
