All of this is still a novelty to Runa. Really the distant harsh music and headbanging from earlier helps immensely. The armour and Harrowheart only add to the feeling of strength mingling with the excitement in her veins. When she sees their opponent appear at the other end of the yard, she feels like she's about to burst.
"Oh! You too!" She calls back, just about managing to keep herself from falling into a bout of nervous giggling.
"Come on, let's do this," she whispers eagerly to Harrowheart.
Those few moments as she readies her lance, waiting for the signal to go feel like they take an eternity. Then, in a sudden twist, the signal sounds and they're charging and everything feels like it's done in a flash. She's used to the strange loping of the worgen beneath her, and the heavy weight of the lance, but it still takes all her focus, all her concentration. Her posture, her balance, her aim. Her aim. She's got to aim...
And then she's on the other side, and her opponent isn't racing towards her anymore. And she's still on Harrowheart. Was it really so quick? Is she really ok? She looks over herself, and then Harrowheart, and then around to Sulu in a daze.
