Rhyme was sure Shaye would be a good student, and he was not disappointed. He did wonder where she had been all these years that fighting hadn't been an everyday occurrence. However his view was rather askew, he had practically been a slave mercenary the last few years. Thankfully his masters had not fought him too hard, any scars he had retained were covered with his dark fur. He pushed those memories from his mind, they had no place here in the present.
His cousin was quick to take his advice, her body shifted positions and easily fell into the basic defenses. The corners of his lips turned up into an approving smile. Having a real opponent in front of her would be different than standing in front of him practicing her stance. Already though she showed promise.
She asked for attacks then, ready for the next phase already. He contemplated his answer for a few moments before speaking. "Look for holes in your opponents defenses, seek out their weakest point and exploit it. If they haven't pulled their ears to their skull rip them off. If they keep their eyes wide open, blind them. I've already mentioned throwing them off their balance, try and drive them off their feet. Use your teeth to destroy vital tendons and muscles, cripple them so they don't have a chance to do the same to you." he knew that this was far from the answer she wanted, but so much of battle was circumstantial. "Use your instincts, they're there for a reason."
