New Insights

Walk | Talk | Think

She had been hanging around close by after the finale of the fight, eager to speak with Thor about how he thought it had all gone, but even after that her curiosity seemed incapable of being put to rest. The wolf her brother had fought had been monstrous, so large and intimidating that she had not found it in her to say even one single word to him both before and after the spar. She had wanted to - a whole list of remarks and questions had been on the tip of her tongue before she had arrived, but somehow she had forgotten every single one. There surely had to be a way to remedy that. Bera felt very much that she was missing an opportunity here by keeping quiet, and she was eager to make up for her earlier folly.

Rather than leave the festival right away, the brown pup had stuck close, drifting past the boundary that marked the edge of Ebony lands and into the Rock Garden. Her eyes, however, green and alert and searching, watched that border, seeking the large wolf Thor had faced in battle. She just had a few questions, just wanted to know a little about him, his technique, and any suggestions that he could give to an amateur fighter like her. Thor was a wonderful help, patient and praising and always ready to tell her and teach her what he knew. But here was the chance for another perspective, new insights that maybe her brother had not figured out yet, or maybe that he might not have thought to share with her. Whatever the case, Bera was an eager student, and she waited patiently to spy her unknowing teacher. And hopefully her voice would hold out this time.
