We passed through hills and woods, stopping only once when Daniel picked up on the scent of a herd of deer, and demanded we stop to eat. Who knows how long it might have been before we ran into any more? I volunteered to help with the hunting, partly because I wanted something to distract my mind, but also because I had questions I wouldn't feel comfortable asking around Violet and Sebastian. Daniel led me through the trees, which were dead for the winter in this part of the woods. He stopped to sniff the air several times along the way. Eventually we came upon a group of deer, grazing on small patches of grass and weeds. Crouching low to the ground, we moved as close as possible without disturbing them. I was focused entirely on the deer, when I took another step forward. The snapping of a twig beneath my boot seemed almost deafening, and the deers' heads shot up, looking in my direction. Daniel grumbled something under his breath and leaped out at one of the larger females. The deer made a run for it, but with his speed he managed to catch it off guard and wrestle it to the ground.
