Glorall

Disaster has struck!
Flooding from the north has taken its toll on Glorall. The large tides combined with the increase in water draining from the Ruieze River has flooded the lower regions of the pack. The sandy soil, compounded with so much water, has toppled a lot of trees. Traveling is difficult even when the water is shallower, with the sandy soil below being difficult to find traction on. The daily tides seem to keep the level of flooding fairly consistent, too.

During the low tide, wolves may be able to move around the higher dunes (with some difficulty) but during high tide, the pack is almost impossible to safely navigate. Swimming is possible, but the risk of currants and surges from either the ocean or the river are very real. The island off of the coast of Glorall is untouched by either issue, although it is incredibly difficult to find your way there without being an adept swimmer with plenty of good luck!

Note: Glorall will reopen once 30 posts have been completed (or at Staff discretion). During this time, new threads will receive a 'Surprise','Disaster', and prizes. Glorall is currently not open for challenges.

I try to keep a careful eye on the bull seal while I herd the pup toward Solitaire. He seems ready, lunging at the pup to go for whatever he could reach. The pup calls out to its mother in distress, blood soon coating it's slimy skin as Solitaire grabs it but now we've got a new problem. I bark at Solitaire in warning as the bull seal suddenly charges in, bellowing it's anger as it swins its tusks toward my brother. Seizing the moment, I dive for a back flipper and grab hold, trying to drag the seal away from Solitaire. Of course it probably outweighs me by at least 200 pounds so he doesn't move. If anything, I think I just pissed him off.

The flipper starts swinging and the bull seal tries to spin around and gore me but it moves slow and I try not to let go of the flipper. He ends up hitting me with his great bulk, shoving me off with ferocity. I yelp at the impack, feeling it bruise as I roll in the sand but I get right back up, barking to make sure Solitaire is okay and see if he's still attacking the pup seal. I don't want it to get away but I also don't want him to get hurt. I invited him on this hunt after all. I'll never forgive myself if I get my brother hurt.

The mother seal is headed back to shore now, possibly to help and I grind my teeth in frustration, knowing time is short to end the pup. Once it's dead, the others should give it up as lost and leave us to drag our prize off since they won't see the point in endangering themselves for a corpse. Our best bet is to attack the pup at every opportunity so maybe they'll give up their attacks. The bull seal charges at me and I dodge, snapping at it's shoulder but I feel only air between my jaws.

I run a wide circle around the bull seal, diving at the pup seal now and grabbing onto it's side flipper. I feel my teeth slide through and I jerk my head, trying to pull the pup on its side so it'll have less of a chance of getting away. As it cries out and starts to stumble, I feel a tusk scratch up my left flank. I yelp and let go in surprise more than pain but the pup takes advantage, regaining it's balance as it tries to go toward it's mother, who's now beaching herself up on the sand again and bellowing her upset. I snap my head around to look for Solitaire, wondering how he's faring.
