The green Lili had taken only a single step forward when she paused, startled at the abrupt appearance, and equally sudden disappearance of Hazel. Almost automatically, she let out a soft growling noise, whether as a sound of surprise, or a hasty farewell, just before the raptors vanished, then bounded into the trees herself, running in Thorn's wake, wondering among other things where the other male Lili had gone...
Breathing hard, Sylicora slowed to a walk by the river's edge, hearing her brother emit a frustrated growl as he shot past her and slid to a halt a few yards ahead, turning to face her. "This isn't... working," she panted, arms falling limp at her sides as she padded toward him. "I haven't seen one single sign that he's even been this way..." "No kidding. Any better ideas?" The olive raptor was silent for a moment, gaze drifting listlessly over the forest ahead. "We could check the other river..." "The other side of the split? How do we do that without risking being a croc's dinner?" "Ah, well, I... I don't actually- wait..." She paused, craning her neck, eyes focused on something downstream. "What? What is it?" hissed Rhojis, glancing somewhat nervously over his shoulder. "I think it's what we're looking for." Sylicora hissed, turning her head and barking loudly, "Hey Howler! Does it look shallow enough to cross up there to you?"
