Footwork! [Audra]

A soft hum rang from her throat as she tidied up her den. Tucking stray pieces of lavender and straw back under her bed, Audra was busy attempting to make it nice as possible. Eyeing the large bear pelt on the wall behind her bed, her eyes moved over to the rest. Quietly, a trickle of water kept tune with her little hum of a song as marbled rock flickered lights off the hot coals keeping her warm. Along the tops of the walls, herbs dried and hung, ready to be used whenever she needed. The small ledge on the opposite side held her satchel, drying itself as sometimes it became damp when she traveled. Content with her work, she inhaled deeply, enjoying the home she'd made for herself.

Lost in reverie, her eyes popped open at the ticking sound of large claws on marble. Turning to look over to her doorway, her smile reappeared at the sight of Cairo calling out to her as he waited patiently just outside. She let out an audible groan in means of a joke as she turned to leave her den and approach. "I suppose if I must," Audra chirped playfully, her own tail swishing back and forth. Of course, she had promised she'd do what was required of her, but it didn't mean she wasn't terrified.

Violence in general was something she attempted to avoid at all costs. Even killing rabbits and squirrels made her stomach queasy. But it was the same reason she'd been ousted at a young age from her family band. Why would any pack keep her around if all she could do was apply medical salves and hide behind trees? Small in stature with a slim body, now slightly filled out from the generosity of the Valhalla pack, she was becoming more adult than a pup. Having spent some time exploring the depths of Boreas and taking part in races with new friends, her legs were somewhat more muscular, ready to bolt at a moment's notice. This she could at least use to her advantage.

"Where are we practicing?" Audra asked curiously, tilting her muzzle as she walked over to stand beside Cairo.
