The bone, a femur from some large animal (a deer, perhaps) fell in the sand at Grusha's feet and she stared at it for a moment. It was often that Nashoba would bring her bones to hide away in her secret stashes, but they were not often in such bad shape as this was. It was sun bleached and appeared brittle. There were pock marks along the length of it, left by predators that had chewed the bone. Hairline cracks ran along several places, significantly reducing its durability. It was a bone she could not use and did not want, but when her steely gaze lifted from the bone to her companion she knew why he had brought it to her. The wolf's torso dropped down to the sand, his hind end remained in the air and his tail wagged back and forth.

He wanted to play.

The girl used the magic at her disposal, lifted the bone into the air and flung it away into the desert. The wolf took off after it, kicking up sand in his wake and Grusha returned to brooding. Ever since returning to the Throat the only one of her siblings that she'd seen was Tae, naturally. Her own father hadn't even come to see her when she had come back. The bone fell at her hooves again and, once more, she lifted it and flung it away. Nashoba was off again, in search of his prize and she was brooding once more.

As if her thoughts had summoned him, Gaucho suddenly appeared. There was no 'hello' no 'where were you?' no 'I missed you' given to the girl, just a simple command. 'Come'. Grusha frowned and remained standing where she was as she was told it was the day she was to show her father what she knew. Why, all of a sudden, was he taking an interest in her?

Nashoba returned and dropped the bone in the sand then sat obediently next to his master. Grusha's steely blue eyes remained fixed on her father. "Why?" Was her only question.
