Bab 303: Chapter 303: Exposure

I had just enough time to dive behind a fallen log as a snorting, furious and hugely antlered buck leaped through the underbrush and sailed majestically over my hiding place. The rising moon gave me just enough light to admire him as he vanished again. While he was a beautiful sight to behold, he wasn't exactly the rescue I would have preferred. Sort of hard to fully appreciate him, too, considering the pounding terror that shoved me down against the ground to cower like a terrified child.

Weird how my brain was happy to see animals had returned to the mountain despite Frieda's attempt to scare them away.
