"Resin"

From where the pair of wolves lay atop the gentle, snow covered rise, Resin had already located their target. Near the back of the herd was an old bull. His hock was swollen and he limped when he moved. Giving Rudyard a nudge, the grey and black fae motioned with her muzzle towards the end of the group. Would Rudyard see the wisdom in choosing the injured bull? Yes, it was a bull and yes he was large, but he would fall quicker than the others and they would use up less energy.

At almost a year old, Rudyard had his height. Within the next year, his form would fill out and he'd gain his bulk. Resin had no doubt that, together, they could bring down this injured bull. Once they scattered the rest of the herd, then it would be easier to bring down their target.

In a low voice, Resin pointed out what she had hoped that her son would see. "Always choose the injured prey. It will fall faster than the others due to its injury. Stay away from the front end until it's on the ground." With her golden eye still locked on the herd, she continued to give her boy this lesson. "When we rush the herd, the healthy animals will scatter. Though they will hear the dying calls of the bull, they won't return. Before, you were a weak pup and they believed that they could kill you without harm coming to themselves. This time, there's two of us. Together, we're a formidable foe." She glanced his way, wondering if he might have any questions.
