The creature zig-zagged, trying hard to escape the predator who'd locked it within his sight, but Talion was quick on its heels. He followed it closely, gradually gaining on his prize, and he was entirely focused on succeeding with this unexpected hunt that he completely missed the approach of another wolf.

She came out of nowhere, sweeping in front of the young Roux-Abrhen as though she were a shadow. Startled, Talion jerked to the side to avoid her and dug his claws into the ground as he skidded to a sudden halt. Outraged at having lost this kill, the sterling yearling swung around to confront the thief with eyes ablaze, but his expression faltered completely as his gaze met that of a young female who stared directly at him - the rabbit lifeless at her feet.

Talion dropped his previously arched tail until it curved beneath his rear, the immediate instinct to submit tightening his heaving chest as he averted his pale vision to his dirtied white paws. He bowed his head, accepting defeat as he would in the presence of a Nereides.
