she seemed excited. and shikoba almost patted herself on the back for thinking of such a genius thing to test a younger wolf on. speed was always a plus, but the pacing is what separated a smart wolf from a beginner during runs. 

the girl easily keeps up, and this makes shikoba feel like a proud mom. only now she's gotta make the challenge a bit harder for the girl. speed wouldn't be the issue. the bark of skeetch is enough to push shikoba into a lope, feeling the ground press against her paws during her pace.

she'd wait for the gallop, she knew better. but at least her pace was faster and would hopefully be enough to appease the girl. shikoba would aim for the line of trees that barely made the beginning of Neverwinter forest, closer to the northern tip of the spine.

it would be here would skeetch would do more than keep pace. she'd have to make sure she didn't run into any trees or trip on any roots.

--

the race ended, and the girl failed to keep pace. and despite the fact that shikoba probably would have let her in, the girl spoke words a mile a minute was soon bounding off to other places probably more important than the spine. shikoba would watch, of course, and when the girl was out of site, she'd go back to making rounds.
