He had not meant to cut her too badly, but it was his hand that had jerked at the man's voice, insulting him in a tongue that was nothing more than gibberish. If the stranger was not to die this moment, the warrior would have been glad to teach him the true tongue, the tongue of old, of life. But first, Vysengi let the woman go, and he heard her fall to the ground with a thud. Ears back in anger, the warrior wanted this man to stop bothering him. He was proving himself a warrior to the Tribe and it was what he had wanted. No one was going to stop him from taking that away from him. He ignored the woman. She was weak and she was easy prey. Once the strong stranger, yelling as he was, was dead on the ground, he could take her and leave. Maska would be proud of the yearling warrior, and the strength he proved he had.
"Your disgraceful existence ends here, stranger! You will not plague my children with your presence!" Vysengi pulled out his second crystal obsidian dagger, holding it in his off hand as he got into a battle stance. He bared his white fangs at the mottled man, putting himself between the pale woman and her would be rescuer. He had heard her call out to the man, called him Silvano. His name did not matter. His angry golden eyes turned to the woman, and he growled out at her, "You move from there and I'll be bringing back a dead body. Traitors are better off dead." Then, with a growl, Vysengi launched himself at Silvano, daggers bared. The long points glittered in the dying light as they fought to find a way into the Dreamer's flesh.
