I am not aware of if my words may come as a shock or inappropriate. I do not heed to such things that I hardly care about. My words are my words, but I do notice the look on her face. She does not in approval towards me, as she should because this is the best path to take. Her curling up on the ground forever and allowing her rapist to steal more than just her virginity is a weakness I cannot tolerate. She must stand strong for herself even if she was too weak to fight off the male. I will one day show that male his fate, with his scent forever burned into my memory.

She asks me when we can start, and I look over her carefully as she asks. She is much like myself- unfortunately a body not meant to be the top of fighting in a natural sense. It is an unfortunate fate for any such as us. We must learn and grow, and find the advantages of our own bodies. I stay active, very active, and my muscles have hardened over the years due to my extra work. It can be done to improve upon the body, but there is only so far it will go I have found out.

"Then you will have to learn to not let them in a position to overpower you- and how to escape. We are built very similar, you and I," I say as I moves my paws, looking out into the distance once more with narrowed, harsh blue eyes. "We can train your body to be as strong as can be- and you must learn how to use your speed to your advantage," I say simply.

"Come on, first you must get yourself cleaned up, and get a meal or two in you, and a few nights rest to clear your head. I will be around, and you will find me," I say to her, my form lifted, assured that the male was not coming back to cause any more trouble. I let my face stay on the image of the female before me.

"My name is Viora, let's go, no need to stay here," I say as I begin to walk towards the mountain. I do not offer a shoulder nor a gentle caress. I will give her the words she needs and the push to carry on, but in the end, it will be up to her to lift herself and have the will to carry on to a safer place among the others in the mountains. I give pause, waiting for her to follow, although once I am sure she is safe I will not linger and break off- she can take care of herself once she is among the protective rocks and the gaze of the Alphess here.
