While he waited Skælingr observed the sky above, marveling at the beauty. In some ways he wished his wife were here to enjoy the spectacle. However, she'd been working hard all day and he didn't have the heart to wake her even for something such as this. So, in the end he'd just have to content himself with the spar and if no one showed up at least the heavens were putting on a show. Sowelu settled in next to him and neither one spoke until Skælingr got an answer for his call. He grinned as he recognized the male they'd fought a few predators with. He was very skilled and had youth on his side. "I can say the same about you." Skælingr nodded and prepared to fight, quickly setting his defenses. Skæ lowered his head to align with his spine, shifting his tail up to do the same as his shoulders rolled forward, his neck scrunching back to push fur and fat over his vitals. His chin tucked slightly and his hackles stood on end. He growled, his limbs spreading equidistant apart, bent slightly to lower his center of gravity and to prepare him to spring into action at a moments notice. His weight settled equally across his limbs as his toes splayed, his claws digging into the earth. Skælingr wrinkled his brow in a snarl, his ears pinning tightly to his head as his alert emerald eyes narrowed. Skælingr kicked off violently, shredding grass and flinging dirt as he charged toward Artur. He hurtled toward the younger, and quite a bit taller male, nearly head on. Shifting his weight to his hind legs he attempted to push off with his front feet and lift himself into a rear before he guessed they would collide. Bringing his right shoulder forward he attempted to slam the front of the shoulder into the point where Artur's neck met his left shoulder. He hoped to throw as much of his weight behind the move as he could in hopes of straining the tendons of the other man's shoulder. As he did so his jaws lanced forward seeking to dig into the flesh where the man's neck met his right shoulder. Skælingr looked to keep his chin tucked to help protect his neck as he attacked. Hopefully he could get in a good strike against his opponent. Skælingr Nalin Catharsis vs Artur for Spar Round 1/?
