(It really doesn't necessarily effect the over all story, but as a refresher on when I use colored speech bubbles since it's been a while-- it's when not everyone in a scene is speaking in a 'language' the others can understand.)
The only thing about this universe that’s weird to me is that “prey”. Clearly have the ability to fight predators. Even without spears. Yet all the prey cower before predators.
In an early scene that big bison punches a wolf. If I was him, when faced with adversaries I cannot outrun. Run away, then savagely attack the fastest pursuer.
and here, we see “prey” intelligently combating a predator again. This world must be on the tipping point. Where prey have evolved intelligence great enough to offset physical advantages. But the prey are just now learning how to use it.
Unless predators are still like… vastly stronger and faster than prey.

That first image is such a "is that guy for real" moment. Also Lichen definitely has a napoleon complex.

She doesn’t want to break the language barrier if she doesn’t plan on joining them, or else she’ll be like Rask but in the worst circumstance, unable to get over the fact that prey have feelings and live a life of parenthood or as a sibling just like her all while needing a meal.

Swift was so excited about there being prey in the woods, she forgot to investigate that uncanny fire smell that lured her into it in the first place.

I really don't know if the plot can withstand Lichen killing Swift here but I wouldn't even be mad

One of the highlight pages from the series, in my humble opinion.
The second panel reminds me strongly of the scene from the original Star Wars (episode IV) in which Luke is surprised by the Tuscan Raider.

The commotion could also act as another way to lead the other pack away from the pups.

So there is a communication barrier between the Wolves and the Prey species.
Swift better work our how to tell there she is there for the cubs.

Swift is caught between two sides it seems.
