Skating on Thin Ice

Aurelia observed as each of her audience members tried their paws at traversing the ice, offering encouraging nods and gestures as they practiced the techniques she had taught them. She couldn't help but feel a sense of pride as she watched them improve, their movements becoming more confident and fluid with each attempt. As Rhazien began to get the hang of it, showcasing his agility with a smirk aimed at her, Aurelia couldn't help but roll her eyes- a half smirk threatening the corners of her lips.

When he mentioned the challenge of thinner ice, Aurelia's expression grew more serious, and she nodded in understanding. "Navigating thinner ice requires even more caution," she explained, her voice calm and level. "Always be aware of your surroundings and watch for signs of weakness in the ice. If you notice water on top of the ice or dark spots, it's likely more fragile, and too thin to trust."

She paused for a moment, letting her words sink in before continuing. "If you ever hear cracking or feel the ice shifting beneath you, lower yourself to your belly and crawl. Polar bears use this technique to distribute their weight and prevent breaking through, and a little wolf like you, Rhazien, can do it too," she added with a wry grin.

"Remember," she concluded, her tone serious, "safety should always be your top priority when navigating thin ice."
