Maybe this wedding tournament was a bad idea. By the time her bracket came up, it was clear to Zee that her decision to join had been rash. The gathering she'd expected from the Fatalis - Carpathius union was much smaller than reality, with guest pooling in from across Boreas and Auster. A small tournament of family and friends was one thing, but Zee was absolutely certain she was about to make a fool out of herself publicly and to make matters worse, It would be in her first showing since stepping back from her duties as alpha. She could only hope that if she did lose, it would be to Gossamer in the first round. Losing to her daughter - the blood of Sirius, and a warrior of the Armada - would not be as devastating to their reputation as a loss to another might be. She was unpracticed, still suffering mentally from the trauma of her capture, out of shape, and unpracticed. She might have dropped to the dirt in embarrassment right there in the ring, if her anxiety was not forcing waves of adrenaline through her veins to force her upright. Squaring up against her daughter she did her best to maintain at least the appearance of composure and control, reluctantly accepting that no matter how hard she attempted to hide it, the insecurity in her gaze would be noticeable to those who knew her best. Holding her head high she offered Gossamer a soft smile of encouragement, knowing her daughter needed this as much if not more than even she did. While the temptation to lose purposefully briefly surfaced, Gossamer deserved a hard-earned and genuine win, and Zee only hoped that at the very least, she could provide a worthy opponent for the Fatalis warrior. With the match called, Zee lunged to strike. Her agility brought by her size and stature was one of her greatest strengths, and allowing Gossamer the first move could be disastrous if the heavier girl got a lucky first strike in. Closing the distance between them, she aimed to run past her daughter slightly, jaws parting in an attempt to grab at her right tricep as she moved past. At the same time her hind end pivoted sharply, aiming to align her body alongside Gossamer's and slam her hip into the taller girl's thigh. Her hopes was to remove as much access to her body as she could manage before Goss could respond, leaving only her horned head in range of retaliation. Zeitgeist Fatalis vs Gossamer for Dominance / Tournament Round 1/2 Age: Over 1 Year Size: Medium Build: Emaciated Mutation 1: Kudu horns (small) - Offensive Mutation 2: Thicker crystalline fur - Defensive Skills: Master Navigator & Master Fighter "Speech"
