Everyone likes a surprise

Natha listened quietly as Naiche described the woman she would be testing. He followed up with plans for testing, stating that she'd be on patrol the next morning. "Anywhere along the border of the Tall Grass Plains and the Weeping Woods would work well." She'd chosen the woods in particular as there had been bear sightings as well as a pack of wild dogs connecting with the border of the Armada from that area. With allies to the north and west those areas were a bit less likely to come under attack. Natha already had an idea in mind for where she would lay in wait and ambush the woman. She only hoped this would go well. She didn't want to severely injure the other but a serious fight could occur in a surprise attack. She might not realize that Natha was a pack mate or think that the feline was deranged or turning traitor.
