>The next few days we went out hunting, for the first while we didn’t catch anything. It wasn’t helped by how we needed to head a fair ways away from the cabin before we saw signs of animal life and Dana always insisted that we be back before night fell, on top of that he didn’t bring a gun ever, just a bow and some arrows. I know bow hunting is a common enough practice but given that bears roamed these woods I figured that it would be nice to have something with a little more stopping power. When I mentioned this to him he said that it would cause more trouble than it would prevent. Eventually we actually managed to find and snag a buck, it was a nice one too, enough meat that we would be alright for a while. We threw it on the sleigh and began dragging it back home.>Yet more hours ticked away before we got back to the cabin and something rather interesting was waiting there for us; ravens. Normally this wouldn’t seem so strange but when I hadn’t seen signs of life save the trees in this area for almost a week, it seemed a little off. Dana stiffened up when he noticed it too. When I asked him about it he told me>"Drop the sled and come with me, we’re going to need to butcher this fast">Not sure where this was going but remembering our conversation from earlier and figured that it would be best to just go with it. We circled around the cabin, the ravens sitting on the roof watching us the whole way. Lying in a small snowdrift in front of the door was a rabbit’s head, just the head, cleanly severed. The snow was still a bright red so it had to have been pretty fresh. There was also a little indent through the snow leading up to it, made it look like it had been thrown over here.>"Well, it could be worse. We didn’t really need the head anyway.">When I asked what he was talking about he told me
