Before her companions could answer movement caught her attention and Valdís turned to see Torrent standing there, asking about what kind of training she was planning to do. Valdís smiled gently at the yearling. Torrent tended to keep to herself and, so far, had gotten into far less trouble than her brothers. She was surprised the girl had been following her and she wasn't quite sure what to say so she just figured she'd answer the question. However, at that moment, Ares wandered into their midst. He was looking scruffier than usual but she couldn't blame him. The volcanic eruption had been hard on everyone and even though it was seasons after it still had a terrible effect on the lands as well as the wolves themselves.
"I was just planning to do some training using the terrain here." Despite her experience Valdís was used to fighting on even, flat terrain. The Range and Knolls were relatively devoid of obstructions and of course, so was the battlefield. Valdís slipped behind a tree, then peered around it at the two younger wolves. "Trees can be useful shields and also a terrible hindrance." She stepped out from behind the tree. "If I were to charge right now at Ares at my full speed and he were to move to the side I wouldn't be able to stop in time. I'd slam right into that tree and probably hurt myself. This is why it's good to get an idea of how to fight in different sorts of terrain."
She looked about herself once more before turning back to the youths. "Look around, what other things do you think would be important to keep in mind when fighting in a forest?"
