Round 2.

Oath's cyan eyes flicked to the young wolf as he lunged, reading the desperation in his movements more than the precision. He had faced countless opponents before, those who fought with purpose and those who fought with emotion. Xairo was firmly in the latter camp, his attack driven by frustration and fury rather than strategy.

As the yearling's jaws sought purchase, Oath shifted, lowering his stance and angling his shoulder to deflect the brunt of the impact. He felt Xairo’s teeth graze his fur but avoided letting him find a firm grip. With a calm, measured motion, Oath used his weight to push against Xairo's momentum, attempting to force the younger wolf off balance.

Oath's growl rumbled, his voice following it steady even as he sidestepped to keep space between them, “This isn’t about me understanding. It’s about you. Your fire, your strength, but also your control.”

He didn’t retaliate with force, instead using his movements to stay out of reach, forcing Xairo to keep chasing him. “You want to prove you’re strong? Show me you can think while the fire burns. Show me you can channel it without letting it control you.”

Oath’s tone wasn’t mocking; it was a challenge, a dare to rise above the blind rage that fueled Xairo’s strikes. “A ruler doesn’t just lash out. A ruler leads, commands, and rises above his doubts.”

The older wolf braced, ready for the next lunge but determined to make this a lesson, not a victory.
