Aster stood in front of the broken fence post, hands on her hips as she observed the damage. The earthquake overnight had luckily not caused any serious damage to the farmer’s main house, but this fence was absolutely destroyed. Posts were knocked over for almost a hundred feet, scattered across the field. Of course, not a single cow was in sight, only farmers trying to fix the fence. Aster sighed, turning to the sun tanned farmer who was working on erecting a new fencepost to her right.
“Wow, this is more damage than I thought there would be. You said there were six cows who got out?”
The farmer nodded as he worked.
“Yeah, all of them must have run during the night. I can’t believe I slept right through a quake that strong.”
Aster rested her face against a gloved hand, feeling a bit worried. Wolves and wildcats weren’t uncommon in these kinds of areas: She had seen her dad chase them away from their farm on occasion, and cattle weren’t exactly predators. She chewed on her lip as she knelt to the ground, eyeing the cattle’s hoofprints in the mud. To her dismay they definitely went towards the nearby forest.
Suddenly standing up, Aster physically shook those doubts out of her body, ignoring the strange look from the farmers. She was sure the cattle would be fine, and rounding them up and bringing them back home should be simple enough. She knew how important even six cows could be to a farmers livelihood.
“Alright then, I’ll go take a look for them and bring them home, no worries!”
