The muffled thundering sounds of hooves drumming against the hard dirt was mixed in with the gentle roars and groans of other beasts. The sun beamed down on the large group; the three Beast Masters taking up the sides and rear while Umbra took the lead on his horse. He cocked his head back to look towards one of them, wondering which direction they were to go. He pointed leftward and Umbra nodded, digging his boots into his horses side and turning it. The jumbled crowd of animals followed him as the Tamers turned along with him.

As they continued forward in their new direction, Umbra thought back to when he was first assigned the job. He had been trying out some new climbing skills when he heard the mentions of someone needing help. Standing around to hear more, Umbra learned of the new town Portsmouth and the need to help move some critters to the mountain. Finding the need to help as well as to try and expand his winery in this new town, he took it upon himself to help out with the movement of the animals. Giving a small sigh as he drank from his skin sack, his eyes caught the horizon of the mountains that would house the small animals. Hopefully it would only take them a few simple hours.

After a few hours of traveling, he spotted a large river which seemed to be a perfect resting spot for them. Umbra signaled that they would be going to rest and the heard followed behind him. The male and the other Tamers tied their horses to a nearby tree and watched the animals drank and ate their fill. Umbra chuckled some as he watched two small cubs playing with each other; jumping onto one another and nipping at the opposite's tail. He dug through his pouch and down a bit of salted meat strips he prepared the day before while taking small drinks from his skin pouch. Turning to listen to a few mumbles coming from the Beast Tamers, he approached them with a raised brow.

"Is everything alright?,"He asked, glancing over the three of them. The three all looked at each other before looking at him nervously, unsure how they should mention their problem.
The male of the three spoke,"It seems we lost one. She was pregnant and we believe she wondered off when we turned towards the mountains. We suspect it might be too late but.." Umbra nodded his head and without waiting to speak, he untied his horse and climbed onto the saddle.
"You three continue to forward with the beasts. I'll try and locate her,"He spoke to them. The three looked at each other before nodding in agreement.
The male spoke again,"She has a white coat. Easy to spot against this sand." Umbra smirked and clicked his tongue before racing off to find the animal.

Racing against the sand, Umbra kept his eyes open for any sign of the beast. He crossed over where they had already been and gave a huff of defeat after searching for a few hours. He was just about to give up when he heard the low groan of the beast. He turned his horse towards the direction and came across her, knees bent down as she was giving birth! Jumping from his horse, Umbra could only do what he thought was best. After a few more straining hours, Umbra had her tied behind his horse and a newborn babe in his arms.
