Aurielle Adravendi

It was time for the first fights. The beginners and Novices would be going first, and this fight was to be between Jynn and Casso. Aurielle stood between them now, flicking a glance between the two as she called above to the audience. “In the ring now stand Jynn and Casso. May the best fighter win.” She turned her attention to the two opponents as she added in a voice for them, “The first to step, fall, or be pushed outside the ring of stones you see around you here loses immediately. I expect a fair fight regardless. Good luck, and have fun.” She padded out of the ring , whirling suddenly back upon her tracks with a sudden ringing shout of, “FIGHT!” The clarion call echoed around the basin as she moved further back, taking a place where she had a good view, both to watch and to officiate. Walk ---- "Speak" ---- "Labhair an Sean-Teanga." ---- "Hear" ---- Think

As he walked into the arena he looked at the opponent he had been paired with curiously. She didn't appear to be like any wolf he had ever seen, but he couldn't quite place what she was. At the end of the day he didn't suppose it really mattered as long as she was willing and ready to spar with him. He stopped and left a couple feet of space between them in the middle of the arena. His two-toned gaze shifted to Aurielle for a moment as the Valhallan leader gave them the rules they were to follow for this spar. Having to stay within the arena certainly added an extra layer of difficulty and was something else he would have to keep in mind. Once Aurielle began to walk away he refocused on Jynn with a small nod before settling down into a defensive, readied stance. He knew that they were supposed to be paired up within similar levels of experience and skill, but other than that he wasn't sure what to expect from this woman. He tried to keep himself ready for anything with his muscles tensed and ready to respond to whatever she threw at him. It would be an interesting one for him since he was most used to sparring with wolves that were the same height as him if not taller because of his brother, but he hoped that his taller height would come to his advantage. When Aurielle declared the beginning of their fight he left the floor open for Jynn to make the first move, making himself ready to move one way or the other to respond. "Talk" Think

Who the hell can see forever?

Oh boy, it was time! Jynn fidgeted as she was summoned to her first fight against a male even taller than herself and more solidly built. She stood across from the man, leaving a good space between them as Tahmores stood a little off to her side. She was glad he was there to support her. Aurielle announced the fight and then signaled for the start. Jynn looked to her opponent and gathered that she was to make the first move.

She swiftly set her defenses then sprang suddenly forward, seeking to close the gap between them in a single bound. She didn't attack straight on, instead she angled in toward the man, seeking to glide along his left side as her head dived for his left knee. She sought a striking, tearing blow rather than a grip being nervous about what could happen if she let herself get pinned or caught by the larger opponent.

Casso gave Jynn's companion a quick glance, noting the presence of what seemed like an even smaller wolf-like male that was waiting in the wings. He didn't acknowledge him too much right now, but he did make a note of him just so that he wouldn't be caught so off guard whenever the male decided to jump into the fray. With his two-toned gaze refocused on his main opponent he waited for her to make her first move. He let himself fall into the same focused calmness that he felt when he was hunting just to keep himself from feeling any nerves he had over being in his first real fight in a very, very long time. In fact, the only fight he'd really been within the last year or two was the one he'd had with his brother when he first arrived back in Boreas and he wasn't even sure he'd really count that. She was fast, he'd certainly give her that. His eyes tracked her as she darted toward him. He didn't try to dodge the strike she tried to land on his left leg. Instead he let her get close and as soon as she felt her teeth tear at the skin around his knee he went to make his own strike. In the brief moment that she was within his personal space he reached out with outstretched jaws to attempt a holding bite on her scruff. He felt the stinging pain of the lacerations she left around his limb, but it'd be worth it if he was able to get a grip on her scruff. He dug his claws into the soil to hold himself firm and prevent his stance from slipping at all and his muscles were tensed and ready to make his next move.

Jynn felt her teeth connect with the man's knee, ripping into the flesh. Her hind legs dug into the ground as she kicked off seeking to bounce away from the man but he was ready for her. Just as she leapt to get away she felt fangs clip her scruff, breaking skin and yanking out fur as she pulled away out of his grip. She whipped around, her long neck darting out again as she sought to bite the back of his right thigh. This time she opted to try for a solid bite with the goal of obtaining a grip rather than just dancing around the man for the rest of the fight. She made sure to keep her defenses set, her large ears pinned and her tail tucked.

He felt her teeth tear at the skin on his leg, but he also felt his teeth catch the skin on her scruff. A soft growl left him when he felt the skin tear away from his hold as she jerked herself out of his grasp. She spun around like a tornado and her teeth went for his back leg. He wasn't quite fast enough to avoid that strike and he felt her teeth sink into the back of his thigh. It made his lips pull into a snarl and in retaliation he twisted his body around toward her, making him into a C shape to reach her. He also tried to jerk his leg away from her to either free himself from her grasp or potentially pull her off of her feet if she did decide to keep that solid grip or couldn't let go in time. Of course that meant that he'd worsen the bite wound she was giving him, but in his balance of what was a worthy sacrafice that fell on the side of something he was willing to bear. As he twisted to reach her he went for the upper portion of her front right leg, hoping to finally get a solid grip on the lighter built woman so he could try to over power her.
