Commander Shule awoke early. Since coming to the Underground Forest, she'd barely gotten any sleep, but tonight was the first she'd actually gotten some real rest in, and though it was far before dawn, Sean still sleeping as she gently lifted herself out of their nest, she felt truly energized. Quietly, she pulled a pretty stone out of the crook she'd hid it in that night when she went to bed, after her husband had already been asleep, sliding it over to rest right in front of his nose for when he woke up. She'd spotted it when she'd been out late, and since she knew he'd not been able to bring nearly as much of his rock collection as he'd have wanted to DayClan, so she'd kept the rock to leave for him and help him get it started back up.

Slipping out from the den, she padded down the quiet tunnel, the burbling of the waterfalls growing louder as she neared the pond. Carefully, she blinked the sleep out of her eyes before taking the stepping stones and then heading away from the makeshift Headquarters. She wanted to go for a morning run, now that she was properly rested, maybe bring back a piece of prey or two on the way. It was rare she got moments to herself, so she figured she'd make the best of it and multitask while she had the chance.

She didn't have a particular direction she intended to run, more or less she just wanted to see where things took her.
