Esarosa was surprised that moments after her suggestion to the male that they ought to wait for one more wolf to appear, another appeared as though summoned. It was obvious, of course, that this third hunting companion had also scented the injured elk, and noticed its vulnerable presence. It was great timing for the wolves. She nodded her head as Dagmaer introduced herself. "Since we're here to hunt together, you can call me Esa, just to make it easy," she said - she wasn't fully sure if the other lady had heard her introducing herself to the male - who now called himself Ritsy - but names didn't matter too much here. So long as they cooperated and got a meal out of it, that was all that mattered. Esa looked to Risty now as he wiggled around and chuckled in a way that seemed out of place - something seemed off about the odd wolf, but she wouldn't question it now. With almost child-like enthusiasm and wording, the male would commit himself to hunt with the two females, and demand to be instructed. She hadn't noticed it before, but something almost seemed wrong with the brute. The ebony-coated woman stared at him for a moment, perhaps a moment too long, before she tried to blink away her confusion and amusement, nodding to the brute as she tried not to draw attention to her observation of his oddities. "Okay, Ritsy," she said to the brute, "We'll tell you what to do." She then turned to the seemingly more level-headed wolf, Dagmaer. "Any suggestions?" she asked, although she already knew what she had in mind, "I think we should just rush it and overwhelm the beast. He's pretty badly injured; looks like the wound's been festering long enough he can't even keep up with his herd... I doubt we'll even have to chase him. We just need to make him bleed, weaken him and finish him off. I can go for its left flank and thigh, if you go for the right -" She said to Dagmaer, before she'd turn to face Ritsy again, giving him some open options as she continued speaking. "Risty, if you can go for its front end and just bite as many times as you can, draw as much blood as you can, that'll keep it confused and distracted, less likely to be able to strike us. Just watch out for those hooves... it may be weak with injury, but it can still put up a deadly fight." Normally she would suggest something more strategic, to set a trap, chase and ambush the animal, but it seemed that this bull elk was an easy target. They could probably take it down with a relatively easy fight, and she didn't expect much struggle from it. But she didn't know these wolves, so she would have to get their opinion to make sure they set off with a plan in mind. It was a strange thing for Esa to hunt seriously with complete strangers, but she would be glad for the experience when this was done. |
