As sand shifted under paw, she wondered if it was perhaps cruel to test her poisons on such an unsuspecting creature. Mehalt did not take much time to wonder such, however, as she ultimately decided that it was not cruel and instead a necessity. She drug the rabbit, took the berries she had crushed with her paws and mixed them into the blood that seeped from the punctures on its neck. She placed it near the entrance to the strange temple.
The sun had yet to set, and she smelled other wolves -- not many, but some. Mehalt lay in waiting, watching as one appeared over the horizon. Curiosity caught her gaze, and she watched as they wandered hungrily towards the entrance to the cavern. The rabbit caught the wolf's attention and Mehalt saw their path change, heading towards it, sniffing before the hunger pangs took over and the creature took a bite laced with berry.
Mehalt waited. The wolf finished its free -- yet costly -- meal and sat down to groom away the blood from their paws. She flicked her tail, the sun slowly setting behind the dunes. The wolf began to convulse, breathing heavily, foaming at the mouth as poison took hold.
She emerged from her hiding place and watched, the wolf twisting on the sand beneath her paws. Mehalt waited patiently, wondering if there would -- in the future, perhaps -- be a way to hasten the effects of the poison.
A final, shuddering breath left the wolf's body and she prodded it with her paw, ensuring that it would not move, before turning to the rabbit and sniffing it. The berries were overpowered by the scent of blood -- one would only know they were there if they had been the one to place them. She gave a self-affirming nod and watched the sky darken, pondering the poison that she'd bred.
