Blood... Despite it potentially being a Thrall's blood, it had Istif worried. Blood meant injury, and injury meant trouble. Though for a Thrall, it was a matter of how the injury came about. One injured as part of their punishment was, well... Being punished. But one injured by an accident was worrying. What was the source of the accident? What if it had been from a vicious prey beast? Or, worse yet, what if it was from another Reaver? How embarrassing would that be? Lose your Thrall, AND have another Reaver catch and punish it for running.

"That's good for you then," Tifu remarked, looking over at Turisas. "She can't keep going forever if she's hurt." Desperation could do funny things to a lion, and even thralls tended to toughen up in the Stormborn, but the body had limits. And with tougher, healthier lions on her trail, this thrall lioness' ideas of escape would be short-lived.
Some plants, broken oddly. A trail, left by a weakening thrall? No...but for a time, it seemed as if it might be.

She had given a nod of acknowledgement to the Reaver when he had greeted her, but beyond that, she had remained silent. Rather than talk her way into losing more time, she had simply sought to keep her wits about her in the hopes of finding something more reliable than false trails.
As fate would have it, she was soon to be rewarded. No sooner had he uttered a reference to blood, than her eyes caught sight of something glistening. It first she thought nothing of it, it had rained after all and therefore the shrubs would be damp, but there was something not quite right about the colour of that gleam.
Her lips pursed into a thin line as she moved away from the majority of the pack and towards the shrubs to inspect them. It was there that she took note that what had been painted on to the leaves was none other than...
"Blood," she spoke at last. "Here," she added before furrowing her brow.
Now was she sure this was an actual trail because the last time she'd gotten it wrong, for all she knew this could have been a preybeast that someone pursued - this time she needed to be more careful.

"As you say," he agreed with Tifu. "Let's hope she eventually came to a stop somewhere."
Aha! Now they were getting somewhere!
Turisas' mouth curled into a pleased smile as several lionesses found more signs of an injured lion's passage. It was always possible, of course, that they were not following the blood of his errant thrall, but as he came over to investigate the actual splash of blood Dione had discovered he noticed there was also a tuft of grey fur caught in a snag of the same shrub's bark.
"She went this way," he said confidently. "This is her fur."
After the rain last night, the scent of wet lion was still strong enough on the fur that he could recognize the thrall's particular scent. Unfortunately, Turisas was still a lion, not a hyena, and he could not do much tracking by scent alone. Still, it was good to know they were on the right track.

She just walked along and found herself thinking of other things. She would have to go on a viking again soon, she wondered who all she'd take with her. The mention of other finding clear signs tore her from her thoughts and she gave a small smile. That was good at least while they were having minor set backs they were, over all, doing fairly well! Perhaps she would turn up soon yet.

Evidently, she had struck lucky this time.
Continuing with her more cautious approach to the hunt, she elected to continue in search of things that confirmed what their 'leader' had said. Blood? Check. Fur the same colour? Check. All in all, it was proving substantially more reliable than her previous attempt to dive head first into a trail with complete disregard for what might be around it.
This more measured approach even appeared to be paying off, for the lioness spotted yet more fur and more blood, that seemed to confirm they were indeed heading in the right direction.
She wasn't sure what had struck the thrall, but for the time being she was grateful that the blood had been swept up by passing leaves to provide them with a more ample trail.
"Well, we're on the right track, it looks like she was here...?" she murmured as she gazed at yet another tuft of fur and several blood laden leaves. She still didn't want to count her chickens before they hatched, but she was at least a tiny bit optimistic!

Since it has been more than two days since the last post, I declare this ORP finished. I'll make one more post summing up the results of the search, then roll for the cub.

Although the party found some leads and was definitely moving in the right direction, it still took them some time to completely track down their quarry a few miles beyond the border of the pride's lands.
There was evidence of a fight at the border. It's unclear whether the thra''ls opponent in the border fight was a member of the pride or not, but they were a better fighter than Turisas' runaway thrall.
After the signs of battle the small amount of blood the hunters had been previously been tracking became far easier to follow, as there was suddenly a lot more of it, like she had been seriously wounded.
And she had. When they found her, she had just about succumbed to her wounds, and was in no state to be moved to a healer. Turisas ended things swiftly for her and the group broke up to return home.
