Nyra wandered from Warcrest today.
Not as far as she's been going within the past month or however long, but not in the immediate area of the Eye's territory either. 

She saw the yearling girl as the giant was approaching from the northeast, and watched with scrutiny as the girl caught a rodent and ate it before flopping against the sand and cleaning her paws. 

The Warqueen continued prowling closer, not bothering to try and hide her presence, though the sand made her stalk much quieter than she'd be otherwise given her towering size. 
She stopped maybe a good three or four feet behind the red girl, and watched. Stared, even. 

She was vaguely interested in seeing if the yearling girl would startle or not at the seemingly sudden arrival of, well..
a potential threat.

note for CMs - points toward Warrior on all posts labeled Paladin on my end! To FlowerBoy - you're welcome!



Nyra watched the girl whirl and snarl with an impassive, bored expression on her face. 
And then, the girl made her first mistake.
Attacking. 

Nyra dodged the claw slash with a leap backwards, and twirled swiftly on her paws in an effort to buffet the stupid girl in the side of the muzzle/face with her hip in a forceful body slam as the yearling tried coming for her thigh.

She'd then whip around the opposite direction and snap well-practiced fangs for Mahogany's face, bloodlust in her hellfire-gold hues as teeth came for flesh in merciless fashion.

Nyra connected with teeth and tore fur and flesh alike. 

Then the girl tried to send a cloud of sand her way, but Nyra practically blew through it with her mass and sent a harsh kick for the yearlings face as she tried to go for a hind paw.

Nyra then whirled again for the girl, light even on such massive paws, and aimed to slash into the child's cheek with her teeth as the brazen girl attempted to connect with her teeth as well. 
The Warqueen ducked her head just in time, to rattle this dipshit's brain with a headbutt straight to the nose.

Nyra was hard headed, after all, in more than one way.

Feel free to skip unless interacted with. He's just watching intensely



The brute heard the fighting during his daily walk to the Oasis, something he did often to relax himself. The sun was high in the sky this morning and he had already covered himself in blood of his recent kill from the night before, keeping his albino pelt hidden from the sun. Hearing the fighting though, he moved through the land, catching the scent of Nyra. He didn't bother to speed up though, as he had full faith that, if it turned out to be a deadly fight, she could handle herself. 

As he approached, he watched them both with red eyes, narrowing slightly. The newcomer was decent in their fighting, though it looked like Nyra had the upper hand. However, Satan wasn't about to step in, letting Nyra choose the fate of the new wolf. She could fight until only one still took breath, or she could offer a position in Warcrest, both of which Satan was entirely okay with.

lmao


Nyra watched the girl, gaze still impassive and bored, as the yearling glared and heaved.

The slash grazed through fur, and the Warqueen let out a crude, sharp laugh as the stupid child tried to go under her. 

Instead of being taken off her feet though, the white giant simply flopped her entire 200-if-not-nearly-200-pound mass downward onto the, comparitively scrawny, girl in an effort to pin and restrain her.

Nyra successfully caged the girl down, and as the yearling thrashed, the Warqueen added a little more weight with a warning rumble.
"Calm yourself, and I'll think about it." She answered with cooled tones. 

Until the child decided to listen, Nyra would gradually apply pressure until she was literally forcing the girl to become one with the ground.

Nyra grunted dismisssively as the child snarled something akin to an agreeance with her terms.
With that, the Warqueen would rise and step off of the yearling, body and senses alike still tense and more than prepared for the youth to try her luck a second time.

Now that that was all over and done with, the blood covered man would walk forward, letting out a growl to announce himself as he hadn't done so before hand. He would nod in approval to Nyra before turning to the other woman, watching her for a moment with narrowed eyes. "What brings you to the barren wastelands of the desert?" He would hold off on introductions for now, waiting to see if she would try to run or not. His own body was loose and calm, having full faith in Nyra to stop her should the girl be foolish enough to try anything.

Nyra chuckled softly at the youth's irritation.
"She's butthurt because I got the best of her" She smiled, in the way one smiles at a toddler that's trying super hard to do something super duper impressive - like it was cute. 

The Warcrest Deputy glanced at Satan sidelong before returning her gaze to Mahogany with an amused but otherwise impassive air.

The man would flash a snarl of warning as she spoke up, clearly not knowing when to hold her tongue. "I would suggest you watch yourself little girl. I am the king of Warcrest, the pack that claims the desert. If you can't even hold your own against her, I'd watch yourself around me." He would huff as he rolled his eyes, glancing over at Nyra. It was clear he was already annoyed by this child. 

Turning his attention back to the girl, he would huff slightly. "Since you clearly don't like this place, and can't hold your own against the inhabitants, I certainly don't think that you'll make your way out of the desert. At least not in one piece." With that, he would chuckle and stand up, moving towards Nyra as he spoke to her. "Should we send out a scout later to find her body?" He enjoyed the mind games that he played, though he was curious to see if the girl would do as expected and run off in a huff, or surprise him.

Nyra chuckled softly as Satan spoke about sending a scout later to find the yearling's corpse. 
"If the vultures don't find her first." She purred in response. 
The child was quick to defend herself verbally, clawing at the sand and saying she wasn't no weak-willed pussy
"We'll see about that soon enough." Nyra rumbled, glancing back at Satan to ask: "So, what do we do with her now?"

The man offered her a smirk, one that seemed to light up his red eyes with nothing but evil intentions. As she spoke, he would chuckle and shrug, glancing over at her. "Then be my guest and overcome it. Meet the challenges of the desert head on and if you make it past my scouts and slavers, than head straight for the other packs that are worse if not the same as mine. I can't wait to see who claims your body first." He would turn to leave, speaking over his shoulders slightly. "Or, if you wish to have a stable home with a chance to grow and learn, you know where to find us." Well, she didn't really, but that could be her new challenge. 

He would glance over at Nyra, shrugging slightly. "If she makes her way out of the desert, send scouts to demonia to tell them to watch out for her. I believe Reign would love to catch a new pet to play with." He was offering the young girl a home that she could learn in, but if she chose to ignore that, he would certainly make sure her life from then on was living hell one way or another.
