out of character
For someone who was getting older, Adelle didn't feel very different. She still was far more energetic than most of the other pack members, though Grandpa was starting to move slower. She still wished to be a warrior, and still spent a lot of time working on it. Staring down at a pond Adelle tugged at the short hair curled around her face. It was a practical cut, keeping the long strands she'd shifted with away from being tangled in battle.
Straightening up Adelle stepped over to the sparring ring. Stretching her body Adelle rolled through her warm up before she braced the practice sword. Afterwards she was going to practice reading, if she wasn't really tired. Adelle struggled with reading, avoiding it when she could, despite knowing it was something useful for her to know. Fighting was more her forte, instincts guiding her movements as she began to move through the patterns.
