Once the first signs of night had taken to the skies above, Aeistrios summoned those in his support forward. They had rallied at his borders, going over the plan of the raid once more - Aeistrios making sure everyone left with full bellies and readied claws. The Plains had sat in silence with the Brook for too long, and after declaring war on them so publicly - he felt laying low was making him look weak. He wanted to ensure the Brook did not feel safe, did not have a moment of peace when it came to him. As darkness cloaked the land, a soft fall of rain joined the skies as the Saxe male led his raiding party forward. The borders came upon them swiftly, and just as quick did Aeistrios charge over them with a rebellious roar, one he was sure his allies would hear from afar. He does not stay in the back, he does not linger while his pride does the work - he takes the lead without hesitation. Paws thunder in, claws kicking up dirt as he begins to attempt and damage any and all things he comes upon. Jaws look for bedding, claws tear through trees, digging up herbs, anything he can do to damage the lands as a whole. But what did he really want? "Little Kitty!" He croons aloud, chest panting as he treks over the land of the Brook. "Come out, Little Kitty." Because he wanted her - to make good on his taunts, his empty promises, and take such precious royalty away from Cassandra. From Vermeda. 0/3 @Mavour @Renfri @Reah @Wolfgang @Melania @Henrik @Anniston @Ahyarë @Yelena @Hexa @Levana @Ryker @Lachesis @ -- anyone else from LP is welcome to join in the raid!

Things had moved quickly after the meeting, giving Renfri only a short while to warn her daughters to stay inside that night while most of the pride was away. She made certain they knew of the potential danger, and that disobedience in this would result in more trouble from her later. After that, there was nothing else she had needed to do in order to prepare herself. This had been a long time coming, and she was ready to get her paws dirty. Nothing to bog her down or hold her back. They crossed the borders, Renfri just behind Aeistrios as he began to tear into whatever crossed his path. She allowed him the role of destruction, as she fanned out, giving herself space for the incoming attack she was sure would come straight for her. She stood, head low, tail lashing, with a vicious smile. All the while, she kept her eyes peeled and ears perked to watch for the Vermedans that would answer their call for carnage. |
He sets his sights on Renfri, knowing how much it had pissed the Plains lions off when he went for his theft attempt. He attempted to approach the smaller woman head on, barreling towards her. His open jaws reached out slightly to his right and aimed for around the middle of the left side of her neck.

It didn’t take long, but she hadn’t expected it would. The only thing that surprised her was that the first to arrive didn’t try to interfere with Aeistrios’ claim for the young Heiress, but instead dove straight for her. Once she saw his face, though, it was more clear. The dingy old man who’d tried to steal her before, back for round two. And this time, it would just be between the two of them. She braced as he came for her, shifting to the side slightly to avoid a direct impact that may have sent her stumbling if he had slammed into her. It seemed to be a common tactic she always watched out for when fighting against larger opponents (which were most of her opponents, given her size). Teeth came for her neck, and she felt the sting as they sank in, blood immediately oozing from the puncture wounds. With a hiss, she lashed out with her right forelimb, attempting to rake her claws across his left shoulder.for Major Maim Round 1 / 4 Hits: Rolling 4d20: 4 + 16 + 18 + 14 Dodges: Rolling 8d20: 1 + 8 + 10 + 11 + 19 + 18 + 16 + 3 Luck: Rolling 5d20: 11 + 18 + 4 + 2 + 13 |
Her claws slice open the skin across the wide face of his left shoulder and the Vermedan lion feels the slip of blood down his left front leg as her claws carve down one long bloody gouge and end up tearing free as his own arm begins to move. His right forepaw returns to the ground and he sets it down a bit further back, he leans back with it to put a bit of distance between their heads and he lifts up his leg foreleg and lashes out and down towards the right side of Renfri's face.

Undulating fear cascaded through her veins as she heard the commotion from nearby. Her ears pinned against her head as her curly mane ruffled with the shift. Body lowering the to the ground like a coward as she hunkered into a nearby bush. Eyeing from afar as she saw that male -- that behemoth -- crash through Vermeda. Memories of all that he had done thrashing around her mind as she swallowed aggressively.
@Aquila was quick to follow in and she felt her fur bristle, a surge of strength and more panic flowing through her. Ana remembered their fight for her to become noble, a moment where he had said "the only way you'll let me down is if you lay down now and give up what you want." This forced her to breathe in and breathe out with steadiness. Knowing that her heart did not belong in the fight and she knew it never would, but she was given this rank with promise of doing what had to be done. That she needed to fight and show her worth no matter what it took, whether she failed or succeeded. All that mattered was that she try.
Despite what @Khadija may have wanted, Analia was brimming with adrenaline as well as that fear that sent her on a different path. Deciding that she didn't want to play it safe and she wanted to teach these lions a true lesson and for her family, she was going to do what needed to be done. For @Eisa, for @Cassandra and @Myrkvi and even Aquila. She was going to do whatever it took and show them that she was just as capable as anyone.
So when her eyes met the figure of a colossal abyss yearling, Analia knew that was her target. A lioness that was roughly around her own age and their odds were almost even. Analia made herself a quick and silent prayer for the safety and continued life of those who were fighting, would be fighting or those staying hidden. Not today. She murmured before thrusting herself out of the bush and headed straight for the Plains yearling. Pushing off with her back legs, coming at Khadija's right side, and attempted to throw her right front paw at the right side of Khadija's face.

Her claws met flesh, and she could sing endless songs about the pleasure that came with feeling the tear of skin under her claws. The tug and release before the warmth of blood welled up against her paw. Something to dream about, later, when she was no longer in the heat of battle. He pulled back, but she’s not foolish enough to think its a retreat. Not so soon, and not when they have only just drawn first blood. She knew he was gearing up for an attack. With his height, it didn’t take much for him to succeed in lining up his hit, claws raking down the side of her face and leaving long, bloody gashes in their wake. Blood streamed down, blocking her vision on the right side. She lunged for the offending limb, the one that had opened the wounds on her face, with open jaws, hoping to bite down.for Major Maim Round 2 / 4 Hits: Rolling 4d20: 18 + 20 + 3 + 10 Dodges: Rolling 8d20: 19 + 10 + 7 + 15 + 13 + 1 + 14 + 18 Luck: Rolling 5d20: 9 + 13 + 12 + 3 + 5 |
The anticipation was a strong feeling within Hexa’s gut. She moved with ease towards the Brook, following after her leaders. As she approached however Renfri was already in a fight with some older man. She couldn’t help but let out a low snarl, noticing the lack of Brook members. @Khadija was there too and she walked up to the yearling. “Remain vigilant,” she would murmur to the girl.
Without another thought she would cross the borders, invading and disrespecting their home without a care. “COME OUT YOU COWARDS!” She taunted them, roaring to the pride of Vermeda that violence had been brought to their home. Now would they truly come or would they hide while their home got invaded. She was sure there would be some cowards, like the one Reah had been talking about at the meeting just prior to this
