"Checking." She called, tilting her head back to smile at the vixen. "And training a bit. Though Shaman's jobs are to check on the equipment, the scout must be able to tell when something has been stolen or not at night." She flicked her tail, leaping up on a rock and jumping off it, landing in the brushes. The enormous cavern was ahead, and inside would be something that her fellow tribe-member would be overwhelmed by. Truly, Kithara had been blessed with the large area.

"Ok." Gwyn pounced up on the same rock Kithara did and landed in the brush with a light thud. Her tail flicked as she looked around. She wasn't sure if she has been here before. Yeah, she may have seen the rock before but it looked like your every day rock. She had never thought of looking past it. "What does it look like in the Storage?" Gwyn's tail flicked with curiosity as she eyed Kithara.

((There is a link in the tribe~ I'm lazy and going to barely describe it here. <3 ))
The sound of a waterfall met Kithara as she approached a large cave. The roof of the cave was half open, half closed. She slipped inside the small, barely noticeable opening, crawling until she was out of the tunnel and inside the large area. A pool of water covered a large area, water from above falling into it like a waterfall. A arch of land rose like stairs along the side of the wall, ending at the open top of the cave. One could only get to the top by entering the hard to find opening, and above were flowers and herbs that Kithara used often for medicines. She turned, smiling at Gwyn.
"See the wall? There are cracks inside the wall. Medicines are placed throughout the area, in an order that seems random to others but normal for us."

Gwyn followed Kithara into the small opening. Once she got through she shook of a bit of dirt on her then looked up, mouth hanging open. " Wow..." The cavern was breath taking. Gwyn almost didn't hear Kithara talking to her, she shook her head and looked along the wall. "Wow..." Gwyn couldn't think of any other word. Everything in the cave was amazing. "What's the order and how should I check them?" Gwyn was interested in learning about this place.
((o.o pretty~))

She flicked her tail, smirking at Gwyneth. "Learning the order will take time. They are ordered by size, color, type, effect, location where it was found, and even quantity." She smiled at the vixen, body shaking as she shook off stray droplets. "Iah and Champagne should teach it to you. Right now, I wanted to see if you could locate any without help." If Gwyn did, than hiding the herbs would have to take more dedication. It was not meant for strangers to easily discover.

Gwyn looked around, still fascinated by the cavern. She walked around, she really had no idea where things could be. Then a nice scent filled her nose as she closed into a crack. She put her paw on it and looked over at Kithara. "Right here is.. Lavender!" Gwyn thought for a second. She remembered seeing wild Lavender along one of her scouting routes, she also remembered what it can do. "Lavender is used to make massage oils and the smell can help with headaches." Gwyn smiled and flicked her tail. The only reason that she knew it was there was because of the scent.

Oh! A smart girl Gwyn was! She smiled, turning to Gwyn, nodding, proud already. "Yes, that is correct. Can you find it?" She asked, tail flicking side to side, smile turning wider. All her tribe-members were smart and clever. She was so proud of the smart foxes. When she had agreed to creating Yasashii she had never thought she would have such clever foxes.
"Where did you learn that, anyway? Did Iah or Champagne teach that to you?"

Gwyn smiled proudly and her tail flicked to show her happiness. "There is some wild Lavender on the outskirts of the tribe. I loved the smell and got curious about what it was." Gwyn paused and to think about how she learned about the uses of Lavender. "Champagne did. She told me some other things about it but I can't remember them right now." Gwyn padded over to Kithara.
"To be honest. The only way I was able to find it was because I could smell it. You have a pretty tough system in here." Gwyn nodded. How could anyone find anything in here unless they were told?

Kithara nodded, pleased. It was good Gwyn couldn't find the lavender, it meant it was hidden well. Please, she moved to the wall, nosing a rock aside and putting her paw deep into the hole that followed, finally drawing out the lavender and showing it to Gwyn. She smiled, tail flicking as she set it back inside, resettled the stone, and turned to Gwyn. The wall looked normal, as if it was untouched.
The sound of rustling alerted her, head raising, body tensing. Something wasn't right. The smell of blood reached her nose, tail flicking as she moved in-front of Gwyn. She had failed the vixen, she had been distracted by the scent of lavender, and how it smelled much like Yuki and Tenma and not realized that predators had moved nearby. Her tail flicked, head turning to Gwyneth.
Wolves.
She could smell them. She tensed, nudging the younger vixen roughly. "Go, it isn't safe here. Yasashii is still fairly new, and predators have not yet been completely chased out. Return to the tribe and warn them." She would deal with this by herself, until Nitya came to assist her. She wouldn't let Gwyn get harmed.

Gwyn felt the tension coming from Kithara. She heard the rustling and smelled blood. It made her stomach churn. "Pr-Predators!?" Gwyn shook a bit. She heard Kithara telling her to go but how could she leave!? She was a scout! She should not run from danger. Let alone leave Kithara here.
There was no way she was leaving. She would hate herself if something happened to Kit. "No. I'm not leaving." Gwyn stepped up next to Kithara. "We can take them together. I'm not leaving you." Gwyn looked Kithara in the eyes. This may be rash but she loved Kithara, she would defend the tribe along side of her.

She frowned at the vixen. She didn't fight, Kithara never fought unless hunting. It would leave Gwyn in danger. Kithara had a vow as Elder to not harm others unless to feed her tribe, or in dire times. Gwyn would not be safe. As her Elder, her protector, she would have to be tough with the vixen, which she understood and knew needed to happen. She was afterall in charge.
"Gwyn, as your Elder I order you to return back home! There will be consequences if you do not return home." She snapped back, backing away to a wall, tail flicking a stone off and beginning to search for something in the wall as the sounds grew louder.
"They are coming through the way we did, but I can distract them so you can slip out."

Gwyn felt a pain in her chest and her eyes watered, she quickly blinked it away. An order was an order. "Ok. Fine..." Gwyn was afraid, not only for herself but for Kithara. "Please. Be careful." She slipped out as quietly and swiftly as she could. A tear slipped from Gwyn's eye, and she immediately shook it off. She had to be strong right now, she had to get to the Tribe.
Gwyn ran with all her strength, she almost felt like the wind was helping her. She darted down the path and to the sleeping grounds. "Guys! Wake up! Kithara is in Danger! And we might be too!" Gwyn panted. "There are wolves going into the storage area." Gwyn was almost out of breath. She lowered her head. She still ashamed.

((Throwing in Amy and Tenma just until the wolves are gone))  Amy heard a sound, ears flicking. She heard tribe-members stir, however stood herself and flicked her tail, listening. Wolves? It would be best not to go as a group. No, she would go herself. Maybe bring someone along with her. The blind vixen slipped free from her sleeping spot, shook herself off, and head tilted to where Gwyn was, frowning.
"Wolves? We've dealt with them before. Everyone should stay here, if something bad happens I believe Kithara will be sad and feel guilty if everyone got hurt. I will go and help her, the others should wait here. I'll come back if she needs more help." With this she moved to Gwyn, hearing a sound that sounded like sobbing. Her tail flicked, touching Gwyn's shoulder.
"Don't worry, Kithara is fairly capable."  When he heard the commotion his head jerked up. His sister was in danger! The only reason he was still here was to visit Kithara and Champagne one more time before he went off to see his fathers. When Amy spoke he rose, approached Amy, and growled low in his throat.
"I'm coming to, that is my sister, after all."

(k~)
Gwyn was somewhat happy that two other foxes were going to help Kithara. But she wanted to be one of those foxes. "May the Deities protect you guys.. I will stay here with the Tribe." Gwyn sat down and looked over the tribe. She knew that the three can handle it... but it still hurt. Gwyn tail wrapped around her self. Now all she had to do was wait.

((Time-Skip))
When Kithara returned, she had her brother and tribe-member at her side, both had their ears low and guilt on their face. Kithara looked fine, even amused, though she did give the two a firm scowl when they reached the base.
"Next time I say go home, don't say no. I was fine, they were almost drugged asleep until you two came in, it took nearly two hours to trick those wolves into eating the herbs thanks to you two." Kithara grumbled. Amy looked up at her, and Tenma frowned. Kithara smirked at them, flicking her tail to the side.
"Go back to bed, alright? Your punishment, Amy, is to dig holes to bury the bones of the kill. Six inches deep. Tenma, you aren't part of the tribe, I can't punish you, but still, you should help her." With this, the two padded off, and Kithara moved to the center of the camp grounds, yawning.
