She'd wandered up into this accursed valley, but for what? Valentina had seen the break in the hills, the gentle, grass-lined slope, and she could've sworn she'd struck gold, but so far, she hadn't been so fortunate.
What she'd found so far wasn't much, honestly. A few herds of deer and a great body of water. Maybe it meant she wouldn't go hungry this winter. With the cold weather moving in, she wouldn't dare risk trekking back back the mountains until at least springtime, so she supposed she was stuck.
Ah, well, she'd make the best of it. Valentina squatted by the stream to lap up a few drinks of water and, for no real purpose aside from entertainment, she waded into the shallows and pissed.
There. Now this stream and the whole body of water it led into was hers. Christened.
