Fire & Fury

It had been some time since she'd been in the battlefield. The woman came in the hopes of bettering her skills, and so she sought out an opportunity to do just that. With the summer heat bearing down on the lands, and her own personal heat, she knew she was more then fueled for whatever came her way. Her shaggy coat bristled with anticipation at who she might meet next. Lifting her head, she called out for an opponent. The woman set her self defensively, just in case someone decided they wanted to try an unexpected attack.

Katja, slim once more with consistent exercise in the months since her children had been birthed, trotted along without much effort as she made her way south to the battlefield. She knew the value of leading by example - she could not very well require her vikings to continually hone their skills if she herself rested upon her laurels. It did not take much time at all before the call of another female caught her attention, and she adjusted her course. The sight of the caller made her blink a moment. She'd met the woman once before, but she did not hold herself in the same meek, timid way she had when Vereux had sought to bring her into Yfir. "You seem to have done well for yourself, girl," she told the other woman dryly, settling into her own warrior's stance to show acceptance of the woman's open challenge.

Katja. The woman faced one who she'd only met once before. The Yfirian alphess greeted her and she was rather surprised that she'd remembered her. The first and last time she had seen her was when Vereux sought to bring her to Yfir, but he had neglected to tell her much about the pack. So in the end, Avalon had not joined because it was not the right kind of pack for her at the time. But after being a part of Sonticus, and then Imperium, she had the taste of what a stronger pack was like. Yfir was definitely one to be respected, and the way her previous alphess always seemed to cower in fear of the stronger packs almost seemed laughable.
"Katja, it's been a while." She shook her body to loosen her muscles, noting the other woman's stance. Today she would have the opportunity to test herself against a strong warrior, and win or lose she would leave knowing she tried her best. Fiery gaze locked on Katja's mercury look. Her stance widened slightly as she stood tall and confident. "Your move, if you wish." She would give a few moments for the alpha to decide if she wanted to go first. Otherwise, she would take it upon herself to make the first strike if she took too long to decide.

The larger female turned to face her, and spoke briefly. Katja tilted her head in acknowledgement, her own face a neutral mask. "A while indeed - long enough for a girl who was too good for Yfir to decide Imperium was good enough." There was nothing of accusation or bitterness in the tone despite the words themselves, merely an observation. It did not take a keen nose to detect the pack-scent drenching Avalon's coat, after all, and even had she not known the pack personally their reputation among the wolves of Alacratia was plain enough. It struck her as odd that this female would have rejected Yfir's fighter's path in favor of a far more militaristic, if equally murky one - she could not see the moral justifications for one over the other. Then again, the minutiae of morality in these lands often escaped her. It did make her wonder, putting together the pieces of a puzzle begun by Vereux's previous relationship with the girl, and his subsequent disappearance. She let her eyes narrow as she filed the thought away to pursue at a more leisurely moment. She did shake her head at Avalon's offer of the first move. "At your convenience," she murmured instead.
