The air is heavy as you make your way through unknown territory, as you pause to sniff the air a drop of rain falls onto your nose. It is soon followed by another and another and soon the rain is pelting down in sheets, soaking you to the bone. The clouds are an angry purple and the menacing drumming of thunder rolls over the sky. Squinting your eyes against the blinding water you find yourself at the edge of a large, dark pine forest. You are too desperate for shelter to notice the scents that mark the border and plunge in, and nearly into the chilly stream that runs through the territory. You veer away and as you are shaking the water out of your fur you notice a large pair of icy blue shards gazing at you. The storm has passed now and beams of sunlight filter through the thick canopy of pines, illuminating a massive male wolf not three feet away from where you stand.
His pelt looks like a bad patchwork job of black and white and beneath them you see large, hard bands of steely muscle and you know this is a warrior for his torso is marred with many battle scars. His banner curls over his back and his lips are drawn, exposing sharp ivory daggers. When he speaks his voice is deep and dominant, like the thunder you so recently heard.
"Wolf, you have found yourself in the terra of the Andere Seite Pack. I am Eclipse, king of this land."
It is only then that you notice another pair of lanterns gleaming in the penumbra and a dark-pelted fae slinks out into the clearing to stand next to the king, her own banner waves and her green and blue eyes bore into you. She is the same size as most males and a crisscrossing pattern of scars show that she too can take care of herself. Her voice is cold and has a snake-like sound to it yet you can see they are both fair rulers.
"And I am Nephthys, queen of Andere. We don’t care much for strangers so you must make your choice, Submit to us now or flee our lands and never return. If you fail to do either you will have little time left to regret it."
The formidable pair pierces you with their gaze and you feel as if all your secrets spill out before them. You are left with a decision now. Will you submit and take refuge in this dark forest or will you flee and never know what secrets these trees hide? Make haste, you can see that the pair grow tired of waiting.

[OOC: I know, I know, multiple posting is wrong, but Greenie is away and everyone had been waiting quite a while, so I really have no other choice. Sorry for the small amount of power playing involved, but t’was necessary to make things move faster.]
He smiled as he picked up the speed, if he were to meet his queen at said place she mentioned, he would have to hurry things along, the next scents to waft among many that were already noticed, were a fae and a couple of pups which caught his attention slightly, but what made him turn and journey to the mix of aged scents, which was actually a little further than another few were, was that a pack wolf was among them and Plague half-guessed the situation a mile away, he picked up his speed, knowing this should go through rather quickly. Though when he appeared to the trio, he appeared calmly, his alpha status just as enforced, but less aggressive, not any less demanding nor respected, simply softened for both the pups sake. Plague didn’t really know where he stood on the pup-thing as he now called it; he hadn’t really ever had a proper pup-hood nor ever looked after one, nor ever spent the least amount of time with another. Sighing, he started to realize he had a deprived childhood and any pup of his would only receive the best he could give them. He wasn’t smiling with his lips, though a certain fondness was retained ever so lightly in his muddy pools that looked upon all of them.
He came to a halt and let his rump meet the ground, he did not want to appear rushed as he were and he only produced a calm barrier, glanced to the pups and then bowed his head slightly to the fae, then explained to all of them. He had paced easily over, his silks rubbing sensually over steely bands of toughened muscle, with healed tears and slashes of sliver all over him, but fresher ones on his chest where Kimani had sunk her teeth in twice. The thought of her almost made him smile, glancing at the pack fae, then the new pups. A few moments passed before his maw opened and his calm, smoky voice invaded all bells listening. His gaze fixed on the new fae
Forgive me for delay, t’was difficulties to sort out. I will save you some time and assume you want to join these two pups to the pack?
He gave a slight smile to the pups and returned to the fae, as she nodded, he continued.
I assume they respect the pack and you will teach them the ways of it? But where are my manners. I am Plague, alpha of Andere Siete. What are your names?
