Moon Runner’s amber gaze was fixed on the posturing males and did not stray when Icemelt came to her side.

One ear turned to acknowledge his presence. In her peripheral she could parse the uncertain posture of the Blod. Moon Runner shifted her weight, as if to demonstrate her assuredness as witness.

A small puff of air out her nose.

Watch, the spirit said.

Wise Father and Faraway Shadow began to size one another up. The elder male pushed into the yearling’s space.

On the sideline, Red Wolf quietly meandered away, with Chipmunk at her heels, as a final show of acquiesence. Moon Runner’s eyes briefly broke away to watch them depart…

Now, only two in the gallery remained.

The conflict began to escalate. Neither Ulfhedinn nor Berserkr backed down. Moon Runner’s vote for Wise Father as Wealda did not change. He was the experienced contender who had earned the respect of all. Yet, Moon Runner could not help but quietly admire Farawy Shadow’s strength and conviction as the moonlight made his black fur gleam like polished obsidian.

They exchanged blows, but the violent sounding growls and snarls made the clash appear worse than it was. How long would it continue?
