[It's not unusual to come upon stragglers in the wild. What is unusual is that they're alive enough to talk to themselves and sound sane. And with just that cloak? The girl was going to need more than that.
Ryza is lucky that Maxim was making one last round with his unit to make sure everyone was accounted for before returning to the capital. He was about to make himself known before he froze in place. His ears are sensitive enough to make suspicious noises and he settles into the bush, camouflaged by his clothing.
Sorry Ryza, he's going to dip into some bushes and ready his rifle. As much as he wanted to warn the girl away, it may actually draw it out faster.
He's a fast and accurate shot. He'll get this over with.]
[The animal itself just so happened to be a wolf who was creeping up from within a bush to jump in for the attack. Ryza looked defenseless, but they say to never judge a book by its cover. It's not until the wolf digs its feet into the snow that her ears perk up and her senses sharpen... There was clear bloodlust in the air. Her battle instincts and training with Lila reminded her to be more aware of her surroundings and not space out so much. That's right... If she were here, she'd say "Don't hesitate. Go for the kill, Ryza."
That's why whenever the wolf jumps out, Ryza whips around and pulls out her staff to bash its skull in with the force of a hammer! The animal whimpers and there's sound of bones cracking to follow.]
--Hyah! Don't sneak up on a lady like that!
[Not that the wolf heard her since it was already down on the snow and laying there dead. Ryza lets out a sigh as she minimalizes her staff back into a smaller object for carrying.]
[Then she claps her hands together in an apologetical fashion with a sweet smile on her face to boot. Nothing personal to the wolf, but she wanted to survive more. Now this next part was the highlight of monster extermination in her opinion.]
Ehehe... Sorry about that, but you really picked on the wrong girl! Don't worry... I'll make sure to harvest your parts into something better.
[She says as she bends down to examine the head... Thankfully, it looks like some of its teeth were still in tact, so she could put those in her item bag for starters. Not to mention, the wolf had beautiful fur. Good thing that she had a knife or two for moments like this.]
