Rival

The only roar was fairly restrained but still resonant. Walking in the deep shrubs with deer tracks being the only course to take. Even those are hard to follow and you're likely to have problems with partly hidden boulders covered with moss. Still no sign of him nor of his followers. This is not like last year when all was clear to see with the large fellow marching around daring any rivals to come near his group of hinds. Then this one appeared just ahead lying down.


He's big as can be seen from the antlers. But his position suggests that he's a potential challenger waiting his chance.
