Elann didn't require a response from her husband, even in the form of their bond. She would try to repair their relationship even if he didn't. As it was, she hardly saw anything from him and she didn't care. The kiss was genuine and as she headed toward the beach, she had new drive to push forward.

While she had her husband in view for a moment on the beach, as he rounded to come back, she couldn't see him. His angling himself up for a run on the river was unknown to her and her eyes were forward focused. She began to round the bend of the river when through her bond she started to feel her husband's tension. She paid attention to her bond, looking for him, but then suddenly adrenaline and that wild sense took her. His loud squawk didn't sound like his normal piercing cry and sounded like he was being attacked. 

Elann's heart raced, not because of her own worry, but because of him. He was frantic about something as if he was in fight or flight mode, but she was none the wiser about what was going on. Through their bond, she could tell he was ahead of her, so she ran. Concern filled her as she rounded the bend in the river and the rock outcropping. Careful not to fall in the river, she came to the other side of the rocks with eyes skyward. It was there she could see him, see what was happening. 

To Elann, it seemed silly at first, some tiny bird of some sort attacking Noah, but then she could see how fast it was and how Noah tried to fight it off, but it was just too speedy. Naturally she drew an arrow defensively in care of her husband, but as she looked to the situation, she realized there was nothing she could do. At the creaking of her bow, a loud roar sounded in threat, much closer than she would have liked. 

There on the edge of the treeline, in plain sight not twenty feet from her was a huge brown bear. Elann's eyes went wide and her face drained of all color as the large beast stood up during the roar. With already an intimidating presence, it now seemed ten times more frightening. The curls of its lips folded around huge teeth that threatened to be biting her any moment, and in reaction. Elann, pulled her bow rapidly and shot. It was a good shot despite her weak pull, her fright, and every other element that could have gotten in her way, yet despite the good shot, the arrow went no deeper than into a plank of wood. The bear's hide was far too thick.

Being shot, that was the final straw. Though Elann didn't know it, nearby in the brush, under ferns were the bear mother's 4 month old cubs, two of them. On top of that, Elann's nearby presence was a threat, the eagle fighting in the sky was a threat, and her proximity to the beast was a great threat. Immediately she moved to pull another arrow, though she shivered in fear and troubled to notch it as the bear flung itself to the ground and began charging. It reminded her of a horse charging, ready to trample her, and all she could think to do was yank harder on her bond than she ever had. It was then she felt the soft brushing of Yahal on her shoulder. Her God had come, and she was filled with purpose and purity of mind as he filled her with his power. Radiance ignited the bow and arrow, and for a moment it almost seemed like the winged tattoo on her back flared to life like real prismatic wings.

Elann looked like some sort of divine angel standing there on the beach, the golden light emitted from her far more pure than anything seen before on Mizahar. It was a purer light than the sun could, or any known device could make, and as she drew back her arrow, she looked like some sort of celestial goddess warrior. The arrow loosed as the bear drew within ten feet, already in mid leap to kill her, and the arrow this time not only penetrated its hide, but its skull through to the back of it, and the arrow, even after leaving her bow, seemed to retain said brilliance in a flash of light. The flash was like a lightning bolt, but more like a flash of a camera, and this holy arrow seemed to render the bear dead before it even could mentally react. Though guided by her God to move, it was too late. He seemed to shift her in a protective way so the bear slide just to her side instead of absolutely destroying her and then the light and his presence faded.

Looking into the power and light of Yahal was not just like looking into light, it was like looking into purity itself. It was convicting to see a being of power so pure and just being in his presence made Elann know how impure she was. Not only that, but peering into the golden radiance also seemed to display his faithfulness, as if looking into it, you knew every burden, promise, wrong doing you've done and how protective he was to carry you to never do them again. It was able to drop Elann to her knees as if dead both times she had witnessed not only him, but his mighty power. He had come for Noah's wife, and had chosen to protect her, and for the briefest moment, he could even be seen in the flash of light, as if he himself had pulled the bow with her. 

The fight was over and the light faded from Elann. Before it had even reached mid jump the bear had died and no longer breathed. Where the arrow entered on its skull, the fur had been stripped back as bark from a tree and worry took the bond once more as she looked to her husband up above.
