They seem to sense your presence as you approach, but don't run. They seem very on edge. You make your way into position, slowly.

He hunkers down, takes a deep breath, then flings himself from his current hiding spot. He runs straight for the middle of the herd, hoping they'll run towards his father, although somehow, he knows his father will probably take care of it, regardless of where they run.

They split off into two groups, one more or less to the left, the other to the right...

Figured they might do that.
He cuts off to the right and tries to pull that half of the herd back towards the others.

They kinda move off to the left. You notice one that isn't keeping up so hot.

He makes a bee line for that one, and if he can, he'll try to get it separated from the rest of the herd.

It tries to dart out of the way, but your father springs out of nowhere and takes it down with a mighty pounce. He appears to be in Hispo, and has its throat in his very large maw.

Ulric takes note of the larger wolf form and kind of remembers the evil wolves, or the Black Spiral Dancers, as his parents had called them, being in a similar form. He decides to attempt that form later, after they get back with their kill.
(("Good catch, dad! Do we need anymore?"))

He breaks its neck for good measure, and plops it down, panting a bit. (("One is more than enough. Say your thanks to the deer."))

(("Say... thanks to it? Why would we do that?")) he asks inquisitively.

He bows his wolf head in mock prayer. (("Thank you for allowing me to catch and eat you...?")) He looks up at his dad to see if that was ok or not.

(("You can just say it to yourself; the spirits can usually tell if you're actually thankful for the kill.")) He sits for a moment, licks its face a little, and then goes about carving.

He takes note of his dads words and says thanks again in his head, a little more sincere this time.
After his father cuts on the meat a bit he starts to notice he's gotten pretty hungry after their long walk and all this running, but at the same time, this is raw meat, it should be bad for him or something... But wolves do it all the time I guess... so, here goes nothin.

It tastes... surprisingly good. You take a few really good bites before it really starts setting in that you're gnawing on stomach and liver...
