Sparring one-on-one is relatively easy. There’s usually a clear winner and loser (or one that does slightly better than the other one day), but when it comes to having to deal with more than one other wolf proves relatively difficult. Her mentor excels in combat at a greater level and while she has learned from her, it is different when put into action. The pale wolf’s command to back off is only obeyed because someone grabs her by the scruff and tugs her back. Unprepared for the attack, she doesn’t have a strong footing against someone coming from behind and her back legs buckle a little, giving her a struggle to keep on all four feet.
 
When Ingram uses her as leverage, she temporarily forgets the pale wolf, turning instead to see the boy charge Blixen but not before she actually hits the ground. Trying to avoid being trampled by Artaax and the other, she shuffles in the snow until she’s back up, launching for Ingram’s rear end. It isn't a properly calculated task as inexpereinced legs send her forward, but she at least has his blind side in her favor. With lips pulled back in a snarl, her teeth swing open and latch onto the muscle-y flesh of the dark brute’s back leg with all she has to help prevent him from hurting Blixen any more than he already has.
