The courier gave a surprised nod, having not thought of things that way before. "Yeah, guess I haven't really thought of relying on it before but... maybe practice'll make perfect?" It wouldn't hurt to try, at least, especially in a situation where he had other plans already in place if it didn't work.
The pile of bear was looking a lot smaller after their steady work, and Tal sat back on his heels to catch his breath. The fight had been short but the reaction had been exhausting on its own, and they'd been working non-stop since. Boreal crooned and pulled her muzzle out of the moose's belly, ambling over to bump her broad head against his side encouragingly while Deimos revealed his own tactics for such a hunt.
Tal listened ruefully to the General's magical accomplishments and rubbed the dragon's head distractedly.
"Hmmm... well, I don't have any magic, but maybe-- Hey! I do!" The grin briefly lit up his face behind his scarf and he reached down to pat the pale Bag attached to his belt. "Maybe... I could fill the Bag with snow and Boreal could dump it on the lial when it comes up on land to get the bait? To stun it?" Sure, it would melt fast, but even a few seconds of confusion from the beast could be the difference between success and failure for the young hunter.
