Regret encompassed him the moment the breath had left his lungs. Like a flipped switch, the woman that had been so peacefully at rest went suddenly haywire, and Lincoln watched in guilty horror as she panicked and fled. She quickly disappeared on the other side of the quickly flowing river, leaving him to watch silently, hopeful that she might return, or that he might at least see a streak of white as she truly left. But there was nothing, only him, the water, and an answering boof from somewhere behind him.
While he did glance over his shoulder to look, he didn't see them immediately. And, completely unbothered by the incoming presence of another, he decided to switch his attention back to the river — or, more specifically, where the white woman had been resting. Despite feeling terrible about having spooked her off, he couldn't deny that it did take on the appearance of a marvelous look-out spot. And if the woman had no intentions to return... what was holding him back from taking it for himself?
His tail twitched once at his hocks, then he leapt, attempting to pick a path out over the water and to the large boulder that would serve as the perfect perch.
