Redtail Rise Savin’ his Pennies for someday

The yearlings put on quite the display. Masquerade knew it could’ve been much more ferocious, had they been out for blood and not titles. They felt adrenaline pumping through their veins, nonetheless, their eyes clinging to every blow Redd parried. They respected Lilia—and would not argue with anyone’s conclusion on her fitness for the role—but they cared for their litter mate on another level entirely.

When the challenge concluded, Masquerade pressed close to Redd. She may have conceded, yet the Caru was immensely proud of their sister’s prowess. They nuzzled at her chin, tail beating against her hip. She had made their family proud, Masque thought, now raising their eyes to see what the other spectators thought.

Namely, they peered in Augur’s direction, waiting for him to formally declare the outcome. Was Lilia the rise’s new Berserkr?

Hope it’s okay to squeak this in here. :)
