Blue

She'd left the shores, passing back through the wastelands. Her paws were weary, her eyelids heavy, and she could barely keep her head up to keep walking. Sleep. She needed it badly. Except, the heat in this place was far too abrasive for her liking. She couldn't just keep walking around like this indefinitely. So, as she traversed the wastes, she began to look for something, anything, where she could bed down until the temperatures were less extreme.

There were rocky outcroppings here and there but nothing that looked suitable... until she found a cave-like structure. It wasn't very large and it wasn't perfect, but it would do for her to squat in until she was well-rested enough to keep traveling onwards. The woman walked over to the rocky outcropping, nose and eyes alert for signs of another creature there. All she saw though, was a rather pissy looking honey badger. The thing snarled at her and in reply she unsheathed her claws and roared at it.

Thinking better of trying to challenge a full-grown lion, it began to scurry away. Blue thought about catching it for dinner but knew the reputation of the irritable creatures. The likely scenario was she'd end up with claw marks and wounds all over her face and only a snack for the trouble. No. Later on she'd worry about the food problem...

So, the woman settled down into the now-cleared den area and curled up into a blue ball so that she could rest.
