Mabon is kneeling in a clearing quite close to the Mansion, skinning a deer. His hair half falls in his face, but he disregards it; his hands are slick with fresh blood, and he has the look of something wild about him, something untamed and untouched by humans.

Tom (who is still ten due to the crackplot) is walking through the grounds with a stick that he is using as a sword to attack unwary vegetation with. He stops when he sees Mabon and the deer. "Hello, sir. Are you poaching?"

Mabon turns to him and smiles. "No. All this is mine."

"Oh. I like poaching. Are you the gamekeeper, then?"

[lightningcurse]

"The forest."

The small feline hunter happens upon the bigger man-shaped one. He's larger than an ordinary cat, for he's a firecat, an avatar of the sun-god Vkandis. He pauses at the edge of the clearing, smelling blood and wanting to see what there is to see before he reveals himself.

Always attuned to things in his space, he turns slightly--if he were not man-shaped his ears might prick--to looks towards the place where Altra is.

Altra strolls into the clear, his tail held high. He looks steadily up at Mabon's face.

Mabon looks back, quietly. Animals frequently speakw here he comes from, and he says, softly, "Hello."
