@Archon! Thanks for your patience!
Edith had taken a quick nap in a blanket of celosia argentea flowers, just as the sun descended from its highest point in the sky. Her morning jaunt had been fruitless, and she had nothing to show for her morning of hunting. Wanting to curve her frustration, Edith had sought the flowers to calm her nerves with their sweet smell. They had done their job, and she had relaxed enough to sleep.
While napping, a storm had blown into the area, darkening the sky like a foreboding shadow. The golden foliage was a stark contrast to the sky overhead, and the difference caused the plain’s vibrancy to increase tenfold. The clouds rumbled overhead as the wind carried the storm into the area, but the noise went unnoticed by the sleeping wolf. Edith continued to sleep, blissfully unaware of what was coming.
Lightning struck just behind the flower patch, hitting a young oak tree that was just out of reach of the tree line. Edith jolted awake, her heart leaping out of her chest, and she scrambled onto all fours and whirled towards the tree. Flames licked the trunk, spreading down towards the roots as it spread.
Edith backpedaled clumsily, her ears flattening and her eyes growing wide as she watched the fire. She needed to run, but her disorientation had other plans. She tripped over herself and fell backward into the dry grass with an oof.
