Get with me if you want to move up in rank. I'm going to change up the pack tasks for a little change of pace.
Congratulations to Adrian on her promotion to Governess. She will handle the guidance and teaching of our young pups in Iromar.
If you have a ^ next to your name, that means you're up for promotion so see me or send me a message on Discord so we can see where to move you. All others interested in specializing or getting a rank, let me know so we can figure out how to make that happen.
The pack board has been updated. If you wanted to remain a member, let me know either on here or Discord and I'll get you back on the board. Otherwise, let's have a thread!
I know I had a couple replies for the training with Spirane so I will be starting that thread soon. Stay tuned!
I am still working on an alliance with Diveen and Asteraia so stay tuned. If you have any information or would like to help, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas to promote activity within the pack, also, let me know. I am open for plots and such! Meanwhile, thank you all for your continued support of the pack.
SOME TURN TO DUST OR TO GOLD IP: 108.245.133.46 Posted on December 18, 2014 at 03:15:47 AM by AITHNE
This fight is not a simple, clean one, but it is empowering. A pleasure has taken root inside of her chest at the exertion. Adrenaline rushed through ever tiny vein in her massive body and lights her on fire as they twist and turn and bite and snap. The pain fuels the adrenaline, the pumping of her heart erratic and the need inside of her consuming. If Aithne was not a wolf so controlled in her movements and actions she might succumb to the feral pull of the battle and in doing so enter into a much more deadly opposition with Avery. They had shown each other a few hints of talent before but this fight was more down to the nitty and gritty. Aithne liked it. She was not one to revel in violence yet there is a knowledge between them that this would release a kind of tension that the hint of dominance inside of her liked, the feel of power over her opponent and knowing that at any time Avery could snatch it right back. A give and take.
The feel of Avery's maw beneath her rabbit kick is pleasing in that Aithne knows if she had put her full force behind it the kick could have proved more deadly in a real fight. This is a spar after all, a way for them both to recognize the other's strengths and weaknesses. In which case her belly might have been gored or at the very least left with nice puncture wounds or a gash, any of which could be potentially deadly if infection were to set in. No amount of trying to lessen such impacts would stop them from the blood and bites they take completely. Momentum will not allow such a clean fight.
Even as she comes at the back end of Avery the dark female has tucked her hips under, pressing them low, and her bite overreaches the tail as she had hoped. Instead she gets in a few nips at the other's haunches and the feel of flesh pinching between a few of the bites prove she has not missed her mark completely. Sometimes in battle if one had time they could do little damage here and there until it weakened the other. Avery is spinning towards her now and flashing teeth are headed for her shoulders even as she attempts to ram her body into the wolfess. Anyone smaller and lot less practiced might have succumbed to the pressure Aithne put on her and it was clear that Avery struggled even to push back against her.
She lets the bites come to her shoulder, her own mouth opened to emit a snarl in her high, and then Avery uses the force of Aithne's pressure to launch herself forward and swing her head up. She is true in this moment, her jaw coming around the bottom jaw of Aithne and holding her fast, and for a moment her instinct demands she jerk away - who cared about some bite marks along her maw? Avery pulls her maw to the side and uses her position to put pressure upwards on Aithne's head and she lets her, her body suddenly cooling down from the heat of their battle as she recognizes the position Avery has her in. A dangerous one - one that could quite likely result in death for Avery's opponent - and in that moment she makes a chuffing sound to admit defeat.
When Avery lets go of her - assuming she does - Aithne will step back and shake out her rumpled fur. Blood spots the earth beneath her back paw as she moves, the result of Avery's bite through the webbing, and Aithne grins at Avery now despite her labored breathing and sore muscles. "Well done, Stygian," she finally says breathy, dark emerald eyes glittering as she looks upon Avery, waiting to see the reaction. Andras had said she would be the one to make the choice if Avery would become Stygian... and Stygian she had become. Now all she needed was to inform Andras of her choice.
