Antares felt it wise to channel his restlessness into either scouting for future opportunity for Shiroshika or hunting to feed their coming mouths, and today, this pressed him out into the openness of the plains. Summer had turned hot and balmy in recent weeks, so for the time being, the dark-coated samurai was only scoping out the area for interests--namely food and shade. He could dial up the activity come later hours, so long as he could still bring something useful back home with him.
After criss-crossing his way along undisturbed, following his nose and the wind both, eventually he saw the sun just starting to dip low on the horizon. It was not long after this realization set in that he could smell the large lake ahead. Seeing it followed, and then on a smooth trot, the shadow gave into its pull. He didn't notice anything to be concerned about so far, but the place did have many markers of other traffic: predator and prey alike, but it wouldn't hinder him now.
Once at the shore he didn't stop until he was ankle deep and after a few cursory sniffs, he got his drink. When he lifted his head again, he scanned the opposite shoreline properly with the distinct feeling that he was not alone any longer.
