Despite their shaky introduction and first few moments, Nayati noted quickly that Heidi was an excellent student. She was incredibly observant and didn't simply jump into things, but took her time to make sure that she was doing it properly. That was likely one of the keys to her quick success in adapting the position of holding the bow, but clearly the woman had just raw skill as well. Even if she had never handled a bow before, he felt confident that she was no stranger to using tools and utensils. If he had tried to show Ghita how to use the bow and arrow, he doubted the woman would have gotten the hang of it so quickly. The Crimson Dreams wolf had been a very skilled huntress, but not in the same fashion as Nayati himself was.


Heidi focused the same amount of attention and concentration on the arrow when she received it from him. There was curiosity as well as an analytical gleam to her eye as she beheld the slender weapon. She then returned to the stance he had shown her and followed his instructions. His pale gaze watched her closely, taking in every shift, every movement, every muscle twitch. She was graceful in that deadly way that most predators were, and he appreciated this in her. The clan member's form was impeccable, as well as her strength as she held the arrow back. Then finally she released the arrow and the man followed it with his eyes as best he could. It his the tree audibly, and while not incredibly close to the previous arrow, it had hit the tree which was more than most first time triers could claim to.


Quickly she had set the bow down and rushed to inspect her work. She seemed somewhat perplexed and fiddled with the arrow's shaft, making it shake against its purchase in the wood. Nayati slowly walked over and grasped the arrow she had shot close to where it entered the tree and pulled until it came loose, revealing the arrowhead once more. He offered it back to her silently, wishing to see what she wanted to do or say next.
