[PQ] only take what is necessary

NOAH

set a fire for tomorrow
set it to your woes

The deer moved slowly, walking almost carefree in the early morning light. They took their time scraping away at snow to reveal what they could eat, unaware of the danger that lurked around and searched for them. Even the scent of other deer had not reached them yet.

We should draw them into a funnel if we can. Noah replied to Deimos' imagery, his eyes lifting as he searched what he could before them. His eyes caught the sense of movement, and he paused for a moment, unwilling to startle the herd at this point. We don't have to worry about the wind too much at this point, or anything like that. We just need to know whether to push them east or west. The reindeer rolled his shoulders forward, gesturing to Cordelia where he saw the movement ahead of them.

When Deimos gives us direction, you take right flank and I'll take left. We'll push them up and hopefully into a spot that slows them down. Then Deimos can strike, and if we're quick enough, can get some if they scatter. The hunter instructed his fellow hunter, easy enough for Deimos to hear as well to stay on track with them.

Do we drive the herd east or west? Noah waits for Deimos' direction, but gives Cordelia and himself their next roles.

feel defiance burning through my teeth
it's not enough to drag this blade across the day
