@FloatinInSpace Salvia and her Snowloon sprint to the scene! She is a little anxious as she is relatively new to this whole fighting thing, but she's been working on honing her skills. She pauses as her anxiety spikes as she sees the field of battle, a massive herd of Alpine Deer stampeding across the landscape as fellow lorwolves and their companions try to direct the herd. Her spiraling panic is soothed as her Crested Snowloon hoots and nuzzles against her leg. Nodding to her companion, they descend down the hill to join the others.
At the bottom of the hill, Salvia meets up with the other lorwolves and their companions. They were all thoroughly exhaused from constant running and dodging through the herd. Fortunately, Salvia and her Snowloon are remarkably Energetic and should have no issue keeping up and dodging through the herd. She and her companion prepared to dive into the herd when she noticed how the other lorwolves were being so aggressive with the herd. If they would just relax and talk instead of barking at them, perhaps they could get the herds' help in finding the Consumed Deer. Being a Jocol, Salvia can produce a wide range of noises and can pleasantly engage in sing-song conversation rather than just talking. With a plan in mind, Salvia and her companion lunged into the herd.
Hooves, dirt, and sweat were what met them. The poor Alpine Deer were in a full-on panic. They attempted to flee from the Consumed Deer only to be barked at by a lorwolf to run elsewhere. Narrowly avoiding being stomped on, Salvia picked up the pace. Picking up her Snowloon by the scruff of their neck, she tossed them up and onto her head. Getting enough height and maintaining their balance, perhaps through their feline ancestry, her Snowloon's keen eyes scoured across the herd, searching for the slightest imperfection. Catching sight of a barely visible ominous green glow from a deer in the distance, Salvia's Snowloon begins to hoot and knead their paws. Salvia, following her Snowloon's directions, weaves through the herd and pounces toward the Consumed Deer!
The Consumed Deer noticing that it has been spotted, strikes a nearby Alpine Deer, stirring up the other deer in the area. Salvia skids to a stop to avoid pouncing on a panicked deer that leaps in front of her. The Consumed Deer tries to vanish within the herd, but Salvia won't give up that easily. She might not be as strong as the Direwolves, crafty as the Kit, or brave as the Lupin, but no other lorwolves are as creative and persuasive as the Jocol. Using the rhythmic thumping of hooves as her beat, Salvia began dropping bars so thick and heavy that her den-mama would be proud. The Alpine Deer in the area baffled and intrigued; slow down and come to a stop, entranced with her words. The Consumed Deer struggles to push past the listening crowd but is brought to heel as Salvia delivers a one-two punchline burn so hot about the deer's cowardice that all the other deer begin to laugh. Enraptured by the Jocol rhythmic flow, the herd dispersed, making a circle around Salvia, their Snowloon, and the Consumed monster. Stomping the yard, the deer rhythmically pounded the ground, oohing and awhing over the lyrical slaying that Salvia was unleashing.
Infuriated, the Consumed Deer charged Salvia. Understanding that the herd would only be still as long as Salvia's flow remains unbroken, her Snowloon intercepted the Consumed Deer and delivered a vicious Siphoning Strike. The Consumed Deer tried to stomp and impale the Snowloon, but its Energetic nature allowed it to keep dodging the visceral onslaught. The two quarreled relentlessly as more and more of the Alpine Deer herd slowed and came entranced with Salvia's words. Feathers and fur littered the ground from their fearsome fight. The two slowly circled each other, taking the opportunity to catch their breath. Salvia's Snowloon slows and comes to a stop in front of her. It crouches down and raises its back feathers in a corona, shrouding Salvia behind it. Salvia nearly misses a beat. She knows what her companion is doing; it's what they have been practicing, as she is still new to this fighting thing. Part of her was hoping her companion could do all the fighting, but her companion is right, as always. Motivated by her companions' fearsome fight and trust in her, Salvia prepares her technique for the beat drop. As if on cue, the Consumed Deer rears up and rushes forward with an impaling charge. At the last moment, her Snowloon drops their feathers and rolls aside, revealing Salvia mid maul. Calling upon the aura the Spiritwolves blessed the lorwolves with, Salvia manifests ephemeral black lotus petals around her as she delivers her strike, Blossom Maul. The Consumed Deer tries to dodge, but due to the momentum of their charge, they cannot. Black petals burst outwards in all directions as the Consumed monsters violently rebounds off the ground. The onyx shower of petals gently falls upon her and her Snowloon, healing and reinvigorating them. Re-energized, together they leap upon the dazed Consumed monster. The other lorwolves noticing that the monster is occupied and that the Alpine Deer are no longer stampeding, guide them away. Finally, separating the Consumed Deer from the rest of the Alpine Deer herd.
