Aplos Riverside

Moladion’s powerful, winding river...
Aplos River is a broad, slow-moving river originating from somewhere beneath the mountains of Spirane and feeding Iromar’s moors in the south. The northern parts of the river are known for their strong currents, with the water becoming slow moving in the south. The riverbanks vary along its course, ranging from soft hummock grasses to small groups of pine, and sometimes nothing but pebbles and sand. Crossing can be difficult at times, but it can be swam or bridged by fallen trees or boulders alike.

This is How you Remind Me of What I really Am
IP: 69.162.214.29

We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin' for your change
The hair on his face is dirty, dreadlocked and full of mange
He ask the man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes
Get a job you fuckin' slob's all he replied




My beloved cherub shines more brightly then the stars on a moonless night, shimmers with more grandeur then the first fallen snows of Winter. Red staples her figure in ruby gossamer that draws the eye and emphasizes each feminine curve. It could shatter me as if I were made of nothing more then fragile glass pieces to see her gorgeous opulent gaze seem so faded and lackluster with grief.

I know it all weighs heavily upon her heart. That is why I must be strong. She reminds me of what I really am. She is my Goddess and I am her Atlas. I am here to bear the brunt of the World's weight upon my shoulders. I am here to take what burdens are hers, to mend each piece of her wounded heart with the glue of my Love and Protection. Each smile is a triumph. Each Laugh a liberation.

But her family, as fine and honorable as they are, stand now only as a reminder of what she has lost, and I do not think I can bare to witness her sadness any longer. It feels good, albeit bittersweet, to be straying so far from their encampment. I feel as if I can breathe a little easier. As if the heft of this World on my back is a little lighter. When it is only she and I, some of my sharp lethal angles have room to soften. To become pliant when they must be sharp in the face of this heathen world. I am the Thorns to her Rose.

My muzzle drifts softly into the velveteen svelte of her ruff, canines tenderly grazing through the silken fibers with a reverent caress. Amaterasu was not quite like the rest of her family. She was not hellbent on perfection like her Father Heyel. Nor was she arrogant and self absorbed narcissists like many of her siblings. She did not think herself better then everyone else, or at least she does not speak as such.... though mayhap that comes from the confidence that she simply knows she is. And she is... but the point is, she is modest with her strengths and traits and attributes. And in the wake of the meteor, she has if anything become even more humbled by the experience. Amaterasu was anything but shallow.

And in my eyes... it is what made her the True Angel. Higher and more divine than all the rest. Greater even then her father who often allowed his vanity take control of his direction. Isola could hunger for Power to Rule. Aaliyah could crave rebellion and acceptance all in one coin. But Amaterasu.... Amaterasu was the Dreamer. And each time her eyes stray to the celestial stratosphere and the heavens from which she fell, I become more and more aware of this fact. She Dreams of the Tomorrow. She Dreams of what she can be, rather then obsessing over what she already is.

And it is in this moment I knew we must depart from her Birth Pack. With Isola ascending the throne and a multitude of followers all vying for her approval and praise, there will be much competition and little room for ascension within their ranks. Amaterasu and I would be wiser to strike out and find our own dreams to pursue.

I embrace her as she curls in close to me, her words of love and affection plucking at every chord of my heartstrings with the proficient ease of a master harp player. The magick of the Imprint Bond had weakened over the last two years, but neither of us ever allowed it to weaken the Bond we had shared ever since we were cubs unknowingly betrothed by our enemy fathers.

But even they could not deny Fate. And we two had always recognized that spark that fizzled between us. But now, in the dead of night beneath a full moon that dangled like a pearl above the crater, a stirring flutters in my stomach. and then, it is as if the floodgates open and suddenly a ressurgance of all those wild and passionate emotions scorch through my veins and saturate every molecule of my Being. The Bond was back with a vengeance, and I felt as if my flesh might actually melt right into hers and we two were genuinely One. This depth of feeling so profound and life altering seemed if anything, stronger even then the first time the Imprint Bond sparked and crackled electrically between us.

And then, something is pulled from the Very Essence of my Soul. Something intrinsically engrained so deeply within me... locked away until This Precise moment. I could not have held back the words if I had wanted to.

Thick cord of my neck arc across hers possessively. Protectively. Large muzzle curving up the opposing side of her throat as lips come to the cusp of her ear.

"EGO vindicatum vos ut meus lifemate." I claim you as my lifemate.The words are whispered in a soft, sultry purr. Spoken in her native tongue despite the fact I knew only a few words she and her pack had taught me.

" EGO belong vobis. EGO dedi meus vita vobis. EGO tribuo vos meus tutela , meus famulatus , meus pectus pectoris , meus animus , quod meus somes." I belong to you. I offer my life for you. I give you my protection, my allegiance, my heart, my soul, and my body. I was amazed and impressed even at myself, and yet it flowed so free and naturally it were as if it were the language I'd been born to.

"Capio in meus servo idem eadem idem ut est vestri. Vestri vita , gaudium , quod welfare ero alo quod locus supremus meus own pro totus vicis. Vos es meus lifemate , reus ut mihi pro totus infinitio , quod usquequaque in meus tutela." I take into my keeping the same that is yours. Your life, happiness, and welfare will be cherished and placed above my own for all time. You are my lifemate, bound to me for all eternity, and always in my care.

Canines reveal themselves beneath the coveted casing of my lips, reaching to ever so tenderly clip her ear, moving with such a deliberate possession, that the delicate gesture is as potent as if I had branded her with a hot iron. She was mine. She was always meant to be mine and I had always been destined as hers. My heart lurched in my throat and burrowed further into her breast, savoring ever sweet scent and sensation.

"My Love... I do not wish to impart on you anymore misery. But it is because of this that I must ask you to do something you might find very difficult.... and say goodbye to your family." I speak the words gently into her fur, before finally forcing myself to step away from her and allow her some space to breathe. I seek her gaze, holding the opal perfection of those spheres with my own captivating amethysts. "Not forever, of course," I reassure her. "We will always visit, at any time you wish... but I feel as though it is time we set out to invoke our own Ambitions. To pursue our own happinesses...." I look longingly into her face. her radiant, cherub cameo, praying my words do not cause her distress. " I have heard of another regal pack, fewer in number and ample in opportunities... perhaps in time we will find it is not the path for us, but I think it would be a good stepping stone. What do you say, my Tera? My Love? Would you do me the honor of joining me in the beginning of the rest of our lives together...?"
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in his shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to sing the blues
Then you really might know what it's like
