Mud wrestling

Nelu turned to glance at his brother Solaire as the pup sat down next to him but soon his attention was taken by Artorias as their dad explained that it was important to learn to fight in various environments. As his father spoke Nelu needed the mud beneath his paws, testing it, noting that in one area it was really wet and slick while in another it seemed to be stickier and deeper.

They were split up and the younger group was sent to play fight. Ven was quick to suggest a melee and a moment later the action has begun. Nelu prepped himself, ears pinning to his head and fur standing up on end. Vendrick took off and slid toward the group. Opting to keep his movements small for now he stepped to the side, out of the path of Vendrick as the boy zoomed past him. His front left paw sank deep into the mud but he just rolled with it. He pivoted on that foot, hind legs lifting as he tried to kick Solaire in the chest.
