Blacktail Deer Plateau This little piggy got none

psst, on our dice roll i rolled a 3 so nikan only has 1 hit taken instead of 2. ^-^

the impact of their bodies as they collide is hard and dauntless' shoulder takes most of the resounding brunt and pain of it. it smarts but a secondary rush of adrenaline fills him and numbs it, allows him to focus on what's presently the most important thing: the fight. this isn't a friendly, competitive spar between brothers. this was the real deal and in that small and brief moment of consideration it terrified him just as much as it excited him. there was no such thing as a harmless trespass and theft of valuable food resources. that hare could have been a meal for arushi or ishara. or for catori who he assumed would soon grow round with his baby siblings.

the trespasser rose and leapt at him, parted jaws aiming for his face. dauntless feigns left quickly and the male's attack misses him. as the male's neck comes into his range dauntless aims to grab the male's front leg.
