Sah chuckled slightly, "Yes. I'm here to play, hunt, and spend time just running through the woods." If that was how the child needed to conceptualize it, then so be it. It was still correct.

Lilly yipped, nudging Alea gently. Sah snickered and glanced at Alea. "Lilly is actually fully grown. She's just small." The wolf turned around and yipped at her bonded, making him laugh and hold his hands up in surrender. "It's true, Lilly! You're tiny." The wolf growled in a clearly playful manner before leaping onto Sah and knocking him onto his back.
The wolf sat down on his chest wagging happily, making no move to get up. Sah sighed before turning back to Alea. "But yes, we can certainly all hunt together. With the three of us, we can likely take down a deer or something similar. If there's meat left over, I can show you how to prep it so that it'll last you a week or so without going bad." Curing, drying, freezing. There were multiple ways to save meat. Given where they were, drying the meat into jerky would likely be the best option for the child.
If Sah could teach her a few more skills to help her survive, he'd feel much more secure in her safety. But he still needed to determine how to help the child further. There was no way he'd just walk away now that he'd met her and seen her situation.
