[The_10th_Doctor]

(So we can start roleplaying, right? If not then please ignore this post or ask me take it down)

Kyra sat in the entrance to her den. It was covered with a layer of bracken and rose bushes, but the thorns had been removed by the doctor a while ago. The rock entrance rose to about a mouse-length above the wolf's head. Lichen hung from it about three mouse-lengths down. Kyra snorted as a piece of lichen settled on her face. Her pale powder-blue eyes were narrowed against the glare of the sun. She was much better accustomed to dark forests and caves. She spent most of her time sitting in her den, sorting out healing materials. Other than that, she was off hunting in the fields, trying her luck at the abundance of prey that lived there.
She wrapped her longer-than-average tail around her paws. Kyra's thick fur was irritating, especially in the summer when it was scorching and when it rained, when it took forever for her pelt to dry. Not to mention the fact that her fur was black, which trapped heat. Kyra had to admit that it was becoming a problem living in the open fields. She sometimes made trips to the stream nearby to soak and try to escape the heat. It worked most days, but then she would have to wait a long time for her fur to dry.
The wolf sighed wearily and shuffled her paws in the dirt, causing a cloud of dust to rise. Kyra hadn't been getting nearly enough sleep lately, and when she did it was disturbed with worrying dreams. She had taken something to help with the nightmares. It had worked until her body had began rejecting it and causing her to throw up every time she tried to take it. So she just learned to deal with the minimal amount of sleep she wad getting.
