Bearclaw Valley Friends, or Foes?

Nyra reached for the child and Skoll surged forward for her face - her eyes. If she couldn't see then she couldn't find wolves to disrespect. Couldn't find her way back home and sure as hell couldn't come back here. If she wanted forgiveness she lost it the moment the child was attacked, even moreso when he saw Merrick come forward as well, and the scent of the dark woman reach his nose. 

Whether or not his attack hit was not decided, but even if it missed the man would rip and tear until there was nothing left. If she had the fucking audacity to disrespect Ursus' leaders then she wasn't going to survive. And Merrick seemed to agree with that statement. This surely was a broken alliance, sadly.

The woman could have dodged the attack from the child, or even waited for someone to pull him off. Could have gently pulled him off of her fur herself. Instead she chose to toss him and Skoll was having none of it. Even if Aventus was not his child, he lived in Ursus and it was his job to protect those in it.
