Though the island was small, the hunters managed to find two gemsbok that they were able to take down, and once they had, she figured it was time for her to make her exit before she was spotted. She laid low in the shrubbery, rubbing against the palm trees and allowing some of the sticky sweet sap to coat her fur. It would be a nightmare to get off, but perhaps Aeistrios would be willing to help with that. She kept herself low to the ground, making sure her paw steps were as silent as possible so as to not drawn any attention. Though there was a narrow strip of land exposed by the low tide that many had used to cross, she opted for the more stealthy retreat and swim back to a secluded part of the beach while the others enjoyed their feast. -exit- +10 Remain undetected in a large thread (5+ characters) (sleuth) +5 Practice covering your scent (assassin) +5 Practice speed or stealth (assassin)

With how small the Cay was, she didn’t have to move much to be able to watch the hunt. She continued to rest at the base of the palm tree until the hunters were done and enjoying their meals before moving off to return to wherever they came from. She rose to her paws, looking around the large palm tree. It’s trunk was thicker at the bottom than most of the others, tapering off a bit towards the top. It almost looked at though it might topple over if someone pushed on it too hard, but its roots seemed secure enough, and fully hidden, so she guessed that was just how it had grown. Knowing she wouldn’t be interpreting anything now, she began to wander around the small island. It was cold here as it was everywhere else, but the ocean breeze felt even more chilly, bringing with it a fine, salty mist that kept her pelt damn and made her skin feel sticky. Once she’d made a full lap around the small land form, she was glad to depart, and didn’t think she’d be returning any time soon.

He stared @Melusina down and the look he gave her was almost daring. As if trying to coax her into showing off some bravery and taking him up on his offer. Remember that your mother fell. And King's fall too. He rumbled, flashing @Faustine a grin as if they were sharing some sort of inside joke at the smaller girl's expense. When you decide you no longer want to smell like crocodile shit, you'll know where to find me. And again with that sly smile and taunting stare.
There was no more time for words as fresh targets spirited away the boy's attention. With so many pairs of claws and teeth, the gemsbok stood little chance. Cassius pushed against the sand, muscles burning. He had leapt onto the backend of one of the gemsbok, holding on and trying to drag it down. The strength he used up in the effort had him snarling. However troublesome, it was excellent exercise. When it was felled, he ripped away what he wanted. He clipped the end of Faustine's stare and for a second he simply watched her before rushing forward. She'd better eat her portion quickly. If he finished his first then he just might want hers as well.

There were so many lions that heeded his call, the hunt became effortless. Many of them fell into their roles as hunters, and the others hung back, to block escape attempts and lend a paw in the chase. The two animals that became their targets were Gemsboks - long and twisted horned animals. Hyperion was grateful that the hunting efforts didn't all fall to him and his small form.

When the animals were felled, there was plenty of meat to go around. Hyperion took his share and nodded to those he met eyes with, before turning to leave. He paused somewhere in the cay's small jungle, feasting upon the meat, crunching on the sand and its salty taste. When he had finished, he sought the twisted palm tree and crossed the ocean in that spot, leaving the cay behind for now. /exit

.So many lions had shown up that she barely needed to work for her meal this time. Still, she stalked until she couldn't no longer - the sand helping with that. The shifting crumbs helped muffle her steps, but the lack of brush made her creeping limited. Eventually, she had to break cover and spring for it. She landed on the back of one of the beasts, leaving deep claw marks in her wake even as it successfully bucked her off. It had become someone else's kill, but she was satisfied in drawing its blood.

When the creature was felled, she was swift in claiming her portion of meat, not leaving the carcass' side until she was full. And when she had eaten her share, she wandered back towards that weird, twisted tree and paused at the shore, using the water to help scrub the blood from her lips before she crossed. /exit

The cay is observed under her eyes, studying the landscape around her with a curiosity as she notes what she can see, and what she should remember. She also is very aware of the crowd around - but does her best to remain hidden among them, as silent as a mouse while they proceed with whatever they had gathered to do. Seifri takes her time to rub more dirt among herself, not wanting her scent to be wafted across the air and her position exposed. How humiliating would that be? Twitching her nose, she sees others starting to leave, and with a glance around Seifri begins to make her own exit under cover.
