Redsand Canyon I sit on a throne made of carnage

Alduin doesn’t expect the retaliation he gets. Nyra is never blatantly rude to him or inconsiderate while they fight, but she goes at him with a different type of vigor this time. He’s not sure what he did wrong, but he just knows that his father told him to go for that spot when he was fighting someone. 

So when Nyra bites at his scruff with a sharp growl he falls to his back as a sign of quick and fearful submission. His scarlet eyes are slightly wide, but they’re more confused than in pain. Even though he allows himself to let out a surprised yip at her aggressiveness. He would only lie there and stare up at her like a deer in headlights.
