After the agreement had been made, the spar commenced almost immediately with Caelia charging towards Cairo. Drachen would have charged with her but Ardyn moved towards him and aimed an armored shoulder at his bare one and struck out with one of his strange nimble toed paws. Drachen almost smiled as he realized the younger wolf was trying to throw him off balance and knock him over so Drachen countered by moving straight forward, catching Ardyn's shoulder with his left hip instead of his shoulder, making him wince at the impact. It would probably bruise but it was nothing that he couldn't fight through.
His left rear leg aimed a kick at either the younger male's jaw or shoulder, not really putting much effort into the kick as his intention was more for a distraction than a blow. Once that paw came back the Vaekhal male turned back on himself and reared to try and get his right front leg over Ardyn's back while his jaws aimed to get a grip at Ardyn's scruff, ideally, or maybe some sort of hold on the armor so then he could push forward with his rear legs and hopefully make Ardyn stumble and open up an opportunity for him to get the upper hand.
He heard Enzi screech her encouragement and he wanted to glance over to see how Cairo was fairing but all of his attention remained on Ardyn. He had the feeling the boy was a great fighter judging by their past fight with the bear when he first came here. Drachen knew he could not afford to have his attention waver, especially when Aurielle was trying to figure out how well he would be at being a Mist.
