Teach Me to be Brave

Sadly, the privilege of dancing the fire dance had been stripped along with her rank, so Ralla found herself lacking in things to fill her free time--which was considerably less in these times. She filled the time where she once had fire-tending duties with gathering food where it could be found and...well, plotting, for lack of a better term. She tried to work out all the angles that they could use with as little casualties as possible.

That day she instead found herself up north where they had just held the meeting, letting the calming sound of the brook soothe her frayed nerves so that she might think more clearly. Everyone had been responsive and supportive, and Ayasha had her assignment. All they had to do now was wait...again. It seemed as if the whole fiasco was just a big waiting game, and even Ralla's patience was wearing thing. In her lap was her fire staff--just because she wasn't allowed to dance didn't mean she couldn't keep what was hers--and she let her fingers glide over the carvings etched into its uppermost layer. Shawchert had done an excellent job with the staff--from tip to end it swirled with fire, the deep maroon dye making it look as if it actually were aflame--and yet, despite its treatments, it remained strong like a true quarter-staff. The end, a hole going through the top there, where the lantern would normally go was empty for the moment, left at home on the shelf. Beneath her hands it felt alive, and how she yearned to use it--to dance again.

Moon walks. Moon talks. Moon thinks.

The Danua Ihesdi moved calmly through the pack lands. His rank had been evaluated by Maska and then highered due to his work. The Spaniard couldn't help feeling powerful now, there were no masters, a few skilled taking away the guardian's who had not worked for the position. So that made J'adore high ranking within the pack he guessed. He was now on the same tier as his mate, something he was ever so thankful for. It had shamed him to be lesser ranked than his mate.

He hadn't had anything very important to do that day. The pups were at home, asleep when he had left, but he assumed that they were now awake and terrorising the sticklebacks at the waters edge. J'adore made his way towards the secret meeting area, he supposed that in his spare time he may as well go and get some private training done since he had been glued to his children's shadows most of the time.

Arriving at the field, J'adore found Ralla. The once master stood with her staff, and J'adore knew what she was thinking. 'You miss it don't you?' he asked softly, approaching with a smile on his face. 'If you want, I can teach you something a little more useful to use staffs for'. The paused, pulling one of the wooden poles from his back, 'Do you want to use this or your own?' He wasn't sure if her fire tending staff was something she would want to use for fighting, but J'adore had taken to carrying a spare of everything now. Especially as he was a warrior, he had been training nearly everybody.
