Unsure of whether Raheerah's words were a ploy for another attack or not, Acacia dropped her snarl but remained standing. She lowered her tail and sat back, but kept a small distance between her haunches and the ground. She tilted her head slowly, trying to read Raheerah's face to see if she could dig out his intent. But her intuition was not currently in her favor and she, therefore, found the sudden silence and locked stare quite frightful to her anxiety levels. So she broke the silence.

"It has been long since I last fought, especially in that manner. Of course, there were scuffles for food in my days alone, but that, that was almost a nostalgic feeling." Acacia sighed. Once again, she felt almost like her old self.
