Eris is by Nat!
The dark-hued woman had not expected for her command to work. Tayui was no longer of her Family; the pale woman had disregarded their bond and walked away from her brothers and sisters. Perhaps the woman had never truly been a part of them? Eris did not have time to consider these things, though they would certainly haunt her mind in the coming weeks. Instead, she halted several feet from the woman, though she paced a wide semi-circle around the intruder, regarding her with angry yellow-green eyes. She desperately wished she knew how to shoot the bow Hrafn had provided her; as it was, she had no skill with the weapon, and her shot was terrible.
So, what will you do? Kill me? she demanded, stopping her pacing to show her teeth to the woman once more, still hopeful to drive her away with this show rather than engage her in combat. Eris knew she was younger than Tayui, but beyond this advantage of age, she could not say how she would fare -- she was not a fighter and knew little of technique. Her only hope was equal ineptitude on Tayui's part, though even the worst of fighters could still inflict injury. This thought cheered her, and she took another step toward the pale wolf, still hoping to make her break and run.
