River stalked the party of other humans. They were three, and one had one of those shiny sticks. It wouldn't do to attack them. Too much risk, and whether or not they're edible is up for debate. The last time she tried biting into a human corpse, she got a mouthful of fibers. Best not to try the same thing with these.

Her keen eyes spied another hiding behind a tree. Maybe he's a scout for the first three. This situation just gets worse and worse. The best course of action is to run. Yes, run. They likely wouldn't be able to catch her in her own home. She took a nervous step backwards, and accidentally stepped on a dry twig that revealed her with a resounding snap.
