"Come on! You guys need to keep up!" a feminine voice snapped, followed by the annoyed sigh of a male.
"They're doing the best they can, Mairéad..."
The female sighed in exasperation. "Dáithí... this hunt is important. Didn't you hear Mother and Yuki talking about forming more alliances with other packs? In order to do that, they need to provide offerings. And right now, we're being slowed down! How can Mother even allow them to wear the furs of the Darkpaw pack?"
"Mairéad!" Dáithí exclaimed as two more Lucain, larger than they, appeared through the trees.
"We're sorry it took us so long," the male said. "We got caught up in a couple little scuffles with the local beings here. You wouldn't believe how they detest something larger than them..."
"But we did spot a herd of Gyrophants on our way," the female said. "Between the four of us, felling the entire herd should be no problem at all."
