Northstar Vale like steps in a dance

Raheerah remained silent as she parted from him and moved to take the hare. The black beast in turn took a side step away, reclining back onto his haunches as he seated himself next to the den and Xi'nuata. He didn't cast a glance in her direction, but listened to the sounds of the woman devouring the prize, stripping fur and meet from the bone. The sound could have made his stomach rumble with hunger had he not eaten the night before. It was a fairly large meal, enough to last him for at least this day.

Once she finished and cast her smile at the male, Raheerah nodded slowly and rose back to his paws. A hard chuff left his lips as he shook out his fur, then turned his gaze to the edges of the mountains that surrounded them. "Weee traavel to the moouuntain siides. Therre will bee no resst from heere untiiil thenn." He informed her. Waiting for a couple moments for her to prepare herself, the beast eventually pushed off in a brisk walk.

He expected her to keep up behind him. His pace would gradually increase, taking his body into a steady jog. The beast would get her blood pumping and heart beating, charge her for their training for the day. In a situation of real threat, she had to be prepared to fight no matter the circumstance - whether she was leaping straight into a fight or had to run to get there. He hoped to condition her for battle on the mountain sides, too; the borders, where most skirmishes would take place. She had to be able to hold her balance on the slopes around their home.
