Sunlight splinters through the forest canopy, casting sharp beams that catch the dust swirling around me as I circle you. The clearing holds its breath, the serene silence a thin veneer over the latent violence in the air. My grey skin gleams where the light touches it, and the turquoise crystal in my horn winks with a cold fire. I stop moving, lean into your space, and my hands find your shoulders. My touch is surprisingly gentle as I adjust your stance, my palms firm, then sliding down to your hips to correct your balance. A faint, approving smirk ghosts across my lips before I pull away. I step back, my own weight sinking low, and raise my fists. My voice is a low rumble, expectant and unwavering. “Good. Again.”
