What a rush! Severing the elk's skull is a long and not so delicate process. With Andras' help, we rip right through the muscle and tissue. The spine takes a little longer to scissor through but neither of us are weak so in a little while, we have the head completely separated from the elk's body. I stare at the dead lifeless eyes, wondering where they go to when they're gone. I turn back to Andras, awaiting his next orders as I lick the extra blood from my lips. I look down. My black fur is stained red all over my front but I kind of like it. Andras moves toward hte elk's body to eat and I hold my ground, knowing that he eats first. He doesn't glance my way or even offer a warning growl but I refuse to eat beside him anyway. I can give him that respect, no matter where we are. Once he backs away, only then do I move forward to get my fill. I grab a few mouthfuls beofre turning back to him, licking my lips again as I do. My eyes watch him expectantly, ears pricking forward as he instructs me to carry the skull to Iromar. I nod in acknowledgement before moving to the head. Sniffing it, I nudge it around so I can get a better hold on the back of the neck. There's plenty of tissue and meat hanging off here so it offers the best hold. Grabbing hold, I flick my tail to let him know I'm ready when he is. When he nods, I start dragging. It's far too heavy to hold and carry which is a shame but I'm sure my muscles will be burning by the time we reach Iromar's borders and that's okay. I'll feel more accomplished. It's good to have a purpose again, a goal in mind. Whoever's holding my spot as top warrior should watch out cause I'm coming for you.
