Flikhamarr picked her meandering way up, down, and along the craggy cliffs that bordered the ocean, intently focusing on her feet and the path just ahead. The sea churned up spray that reached even to her height, and was whipped around by the constant wind to soak everything in the rocky coast with salty damp. She barely noticed it. This was her natural state of life, the chill of the breeze and the constantly wet fur, treading her way along slick dark rocks that threatened to slip her up and send her tumbling towards broken bones below. She was at home here.

She was further out than usual today on her scouting, beyond the pride's normal territory. She'd wanted to study the lay of the terrain in this area and get in some climbing practice on unfamiliar paths. And besides, some of the Reavers were getting annoyed lately that she was trying to patrol the borders like the warrior she wasn't. So she'd just get out of their hair for awhile.

Ngetal tucked herself into the branches of the tree high up on the cliff. It had been hard work dragging her meal up this high, but she'd seen some nasty predators about earlier and had wanted to be extra sure that she and the meal that would last her a few days were safe from plundering. And the presence of water so far below her was comforting. The sea-spray and salty briny, while undrinkable, were rhythmic, both lulling her to relax and forcing her to be aware of the predators that may lurk below her on the beach.

At least they couldn't get up this high without risking broken bones. And they'd not be able to climb onto her chosen tree, given how twisted and knobby it was. Though Neta admitted to herself, despite the difficulty of climbing into it, it was rather comfortable once you settled into the evergreen-like branches with cushiony leafs.

Sliding between a pair of boulders that blocked her path, Flik picked up speed now that she'd gotten her heart pumping, and bounded up and down along the cliffside like a goat, trying to see how fast she could go without slipping. Eventually her ambition caught up with her and she did loose footing, but caught herself almost immediately with a flail and scratching of claws to find purchase in the bits of dirt that got caught in cracks. She clung there for a moment, breathing heavily.

Frustrated with herself, she turned and went headlong straight up the cliff, eyes focused only on the rocks, seeking out any little ledge or outcropping to hold onto. She hauled herself foot over foot for nearly thirty, forty feet, passing by the trunk of a tree near the top without much thought. Finally she came to almost the very top and paused to let her muscles rest. There, that was much better. No slipping this time.

She twisted to take in the dramatic view... and gave a very un-Viking like squeal as she found herself looking right at another cat.

The high pitched squeal started Neta. She sunk her claws into the branch she'd been recline on. Ngetal looked around and found a lioness at the top of the cliff, on the same eye level as her across the gap of emptiness that separated the cliff from the tree and the lioness from Neta.

"A how do you you do, to you too! Really was that entirely necessary?" Ngetal demanded, her tail twitching back and forth in agitation. "That was rather dangerous." Neta muttered to herself, making sure to sink her claws deeper into the bark of her tree.
