She had decided to venture from the traveling party a little ways, but not too far that if something were to happen help wouldn't be far off.
Flicking her dark tail behind her she curled around one of her back legs out of boredom. So she was to be a slave when they got back. All of her siblings would end up in such a role, but the males could easily find mates outside this class they had been placed.
