Sunlight dapples the clearing as Darel and Arabanoo spar playfully, their movements fluid and familiar. Nearby, Gee munches on snacks while Coorah vibrates with anxious energy, ready to heal any scrape. The Kulipari—Burnu, Dingo, Ponto, and Quoba—watch from the sidelines, training or lounging. Peace reigns; no Scorpions or Spiders disturb the clear sky and gentle breeze.
