Strai found his opponent, or more accurately, she found him. He rose fluidly to his paws as she raced at him. They were evenly matched in height, though she was a little older than him. He had no time left to make any other observations before she was upon him.
She raised her forlegs, the cheeky grin on her face easy telling him what type of match this would be. So he attempted to be somewhat careful ashe turned his head, attempting to cut at the right foreleg wrapped about him. Knowing the dagger would be what her eyes would settle on, he actually attempted to cut her with the prickly spurs along his cheek

Nelu busied himself on seasoning his clay, getting it to the right consistency for the pottery he intended to make. Focused on his work he was surprised to hear the challenging call ring out across the fields outside the castle. A resources challenge. A raid. Nelu's eyes narrowed and he swiftly moved to done his armor and weaponry, not worrying about the clay and silt that stained his paws.
He arrived to a mess of fights going on around him and knew at this point negotiation was pointless. His keen eyes hunted for a an unpaired warrior when they rested on a girl about his age and height though much lighter in build. A fine set of horns adorned her head and she seemed a good opponent. Nelu charged, coming at the woman's right shoulder at a perpendicular angle. He sought to throw his chest forward into the outside of her right shoulder while at the same time his fangs sought to catch her scruff at the back of her head.

She follows them to the Castle, fur on end with the anticipation of a fight. Would she get a chance this time? From what she'd heard before, The Hallows wolves didn't disappoint. The blue babe makes her way with a grin on her face, ready to take on whoever she can find. Unfortunately for her, getting there damn near last made it so that everyone else had first dibs. She growled her irritation, but would wait (im)patiently for her chance and instead, stalked the perimeter, gaze hungrily eyeing The Hallows grounds as she waited for an opponent she could take. Gods be damned if she didn't get her chance again! |
Just like her opponent, Dusk had also come into the raid distracted. There was something on her mind. Or someone, rather. Ever since she'd kissed Sitri, he was all that she could think about. The dark lady wanted more of him. Lots more. Distracted or no, she was able to shut everything off once she arrived at the battlefield. The skill of a true warrior.
Fiery eyes scanned the crowd. As wolves paired up to begin their fights, Dusk held back, allowing others to choose first. Once a few battles had begun the antlered fae moved towards a smaller wolf. Dusk wouldn't use Whisper unless she had no choice, but she wouldn't take it easy on her opponent. It would be doing the spotted wolf a disservice.
Dusk nodded to the girl, not smiling but friendly enough in a serious sort of way. It seemed that the spotted fae was the serious type as well based on her expression. Maybe they both needed this.
Rushing forward towards her opponent, the obsidian woman rose up onto her hind legs just enough to attempt to wrap her forelegs around the other fae's neck. She would try to use her superior size to knock the girl down and use her claws in moderation to try and hang onto her armor.

To her opponent's credit, he did manage to pivot and react to her attack quickly even if she did at least manage to land some kind of blow. Her shoulder connected with his, the impact of the blow even reverberating through her. It would definitely bruise, but that was fine by her. Her opponent made sure she had to keep moving as she felt him shift and twist, his head disappearing past the edge of her vision as he reached for her scruff. She attempted to duck out of the way, but with as close quarters as they were it was difficult for her to entirely escape his grasp. She felt his teeth on her scruff, but not as securely as he might have managed if she hadn't tried to drop down out of reach. Well, since her only option now was to try and "convince" him to let go, she twisted her head without pulling her neck away, turning her head to the side and tipping her muzzle up toward the sky until her antlers were pointed in his direction. She tossed her head back toward him, wanting to prod the side of his neck with her antlers to kindly tell him to get off her scruff!

A slip of the paw, but not of his own, decided the outcome of the fight. The grappling wolves fought against one another's strength to the bitter end, but in the end Artorias had better leverage over Víðarr's body, and with a smooth yank, he pulled the viking king off his feet and brought him to the ground. The Lord of Cinder was atop of him immediately, pinning his defeated opponent down with strong paws to the chest and sternum, looming over him with a triumphant grin and fire smoldering in his eyes. Víðarr had put up an excellent fight and rejuvenated some of the Lord's spirit! "Better luck next time, friend," he bantered playfully with his fellow alpha, stepping off his prone body so Víðarr could get back up and see himself off to the sidelines. Regardless of who won, the Hallows had prepared an enjoyable meal for the combatants at the end. Heiðinn was still their guests and friends, after all!
With one alpha down, Artorias turned his attention over to the lady of the mountains who had been watching her husband as Art had taken him down, shooting a playful grin at Tenshi with a challenging gleam in his fire-kissed eyes. "Care to dance, Tenshi?" He chuckled, teasing her as he stepped up to face off against the queen of Heiðinn. Artorias gave a shake of his coat to unruffle his fur where Víðarr had grabbed at it, then set his defenses, paws squared and muscles tensed. Once she was ready (because he was still a gentleman even in combat), Artorias opened their fight much the same as he did with Víðarr, charging for his opponent. However, this time he had a trick up his sleeve—using his nimble footwork, Artorias feigned a dip to the left only to sidestep right, aiming to place himself at Tenshi's side as he lunged for her, paws outstretched and seeking to wrap around her midsection so he might grapple with her if they collided.

Those sharp, almost icy appearing spines jutting from his face hadn't been noticed. As her legs wrap around his shoulders and she tries her best to avoid the dagger, she's surprised when pain slices across her foreleg. Her teeth grit together, head pulling back slightly as she watches blood begin to seep from her skin. Oh, so he had defenses huh? Well, so did she!
Bramble lets out a laugh as she pushes out her cat claws and attempts to dig them into his shoulders. A little cut from his cheek wouldn't deter her! With her grip tightly on the boy, Bramble tries to twist enough to bring him down and pin him to the ground.

bramble's companions are to be assumed near her unless stated otherwise.
Delphi's intense gaze meets the charcoal and antlered woman with poise and a refreshed expression. Just a hint of a smirk on her lips as the much larger fae approaches. Twice her size didn't intimidate her, nor did three times her size either. She had taken down bears before so another wolf would be nothing compared to her fighting history.
Spreading her paws slightly, shoulders hunched and ears flattened, Delphi watches with her heterochromatic eyes. She sees the girl lift up onto her hind paws, which for a split second confused her because well, Delphi was so... tiny. But hey, she'd use it to her advantage anyway! With Dusk's underside now available and the vulnerable bits open, Delphi dashes forward toward Dusk's hind paws. It's then that she sees the weapon tied neatly and securely to Dusk's tail.
Time for plan B. Instead of going for Dusk's tail in a playful tug-o-war fashion, Delphi lunges for her left hind leg and aims to grab on like a puppy that doesn't want their parent to leave them.

Artorias is able to best Vidarr and though it is her husband that loses, Tenshi smiles anyway. They were all friends after all and she wasn't petty enough to be upset over a friendly raid. Coming to stand as Artorias' attention turns to her, Tenshi dips her muzzle to him in greeting and out of respect as well. "You can show me all the wonderful dance moves Vidarr doesn't have," Tenshi teases back, her own steely blue gaze meeting the fiery embers of Artorias.
Shaking out her own fur and setting her defenses, Tenshi is more than ready to tango with the Aegis of the Hallows. When he comes toward her, she watches, knowing he is an expert at footwork and agility. His slimmer frame provides more speed than her bulkier weight, but his carelessness to come so close to her brings a smirk to her face. Standing firm as he feigns left only to go right, sliding along the side of her body, Tenshi leans into Artorias as he grapples her.
Once Artorias' has a firm hold on her, Tenshi lowers her head slightly, tilting her chin so that her antlers have a better angle. Aiming to gently touch the tips of her tines to his thigh, she smiles. "Wouldn't want to scar that pretty blue fur of yours, now would you?" She calls to Artorias, her eyes glancing backward at the Aegis.

The woman ducked down but not far enough to escape his fangs. Úlfr's jaws seized hold of her scruff a bit farther down and he held fast. Out of the corner of his eye he could see her moving, her head suddenly whipped back, horns aiming for his face. Úlfr twisted his head to his left, facing down the woman's back as her horns bashed into the side of his helmet. Forced to relinquish his hold he swiftly went for another. Already facing down her back, he lunged once more, fangs aiming for her back, just behind her shoulders. Once again he wanted a grip and hopefully this time he'd be far enough back not to have to contend with her antlers.

"Ow ow ow!" Maki protested, it hurt a little, but not to the extent she was fussing over. It was more like...you know when you say hurt in anticipation, just out of habit more than actual distress. She reared her head back, hoping to give him a good bonking with her horns, that'd surely make him let go.
Maybe.
