Summer has arrived. The world has been well at peace, and others seem to be trying to take advantage. They believe we are lazy and complacent. We are no such thing. Remain vigilante, friends and family.
Give your congratulations to Maiko. She has been promoted to Blizzard; she earned it.
We also have an activity check going. Please reply so I can make adjustments accordingly. Check will go for an entire month so we can hopefully capture everyone.
As always, if you have need of me, do not hesitate to find me.

Beautiful eyes of blue and gold angled up to his Mother’s own once more as he proudly shared the information he had learned and waited for some kind of praise, midnight black body tucked close against her own, yet even now he had near outgrown such a position. After all, he, like Starfall will be a large boy, easily rivalling his Father and standing over his Mother in the days to come and indeed, perhaps they will both look back upon such a moment and laugh one day at the very notion that the black and red boy ever had rested so comfortably between her forepaws and against her chest. His eyes tilted towards her as she spoke of Achilles, the boy Guardian had decided to make his best friend, more by default then anything really. After all, he couldn’t make Meryl or Star his best friend, they were his brothers and officially cannot be counted, he couldn’t have Gecko or Oswin, because they were girls and a boy needs a boy as his best friend which only left, aside from Achilles, Alyx, Elijah and Uno and Guard has never met the first too and Papa says he never will, so they can hardly be his friends and Uno, while a very good chaser, was not nearly so shiny as Achilles and, based on these facts, along with the fact that Guardian had been made official Princes Guard means that he has surely selected the right best friend. He frowned slightly as Mama spoke on this matter of Princes and Kings and Queens. This is a very confusing topic to his mind and while he is sure it doesn’t matter to much- it did seem very important to Papa and to Achilles and so many of the others. Maybe it should be important to him too? He grinned with delight at his Mother’s admittance that in this other land he was very much a Prince, tail waving behind him and against her before he spoke once more.
“I guess it dun matter all dat much eh? Achilles be sayin that I’mmm his Princes Guard and when we be gettin’ real big I getta be his Kings Guard like Papa is bein’ fa Isola.”
He beamed proudly once more, seating himself straight and tall, sure his Mama will be thrilled to hear about his blossoming career prospects and the fact he has already made a move to secure such things at such a young age. Of course, to his mind such a thing seems daring and bold, he remains entirely unaware as to the length of duty required from a Kings Guard, nor the fact that such a position would ensure he essentially becomes a living shield for his friend, to his mind it is simply a grand and important thing and Guardian likes to feel important. The youngest one often does. He swatted playfully at her face as she bent down to lick at him, half-hoping no one was there to see his Mother fixing his fur atop the hill before she spoke again, the sun beginning to dip down, bathing both black wolves in a faint and golden glow as they spoke of jobs and ranks and relatives, another highly fascinating topic to the boy with the curious mind. She spoke first of Meryl and his healing, Guardian shaking his head assuredly.
“Nah, I won’t be gettin’ hurt. I’mma be da best at fights, but I can be lettin’ Meryl try anyway, den he ain’t be feelin’ bad.”
This, he feels, is an excellent compromise. He, Guardian, will be such a wonderful fighter that he will never need healing, yet, just so his Brother doesn’t feel entirely useless, he will be willing to allow Meryl to practice on him every now and then. Guardian is after all, a very caring Brother- evidently. The boy shifted, sighing in contentment as he lent back against his Mother once more, thrilled, really, to simply be alone and in her company. After all, he has to share her quite a bit and while he doesn’t mind terribly much, he really isn’t much the sharing type, though where this could have been inherited from is very much unknown. She continues to speak, answering his questions with patience as his ears flick back towards her, his own eyes watching the sky, some of her words missed or fallen on deaf ears as the boys mind wandered as children often do, blue gold gaze focused on the setting sun with glee before her talk of Dreamwalkers seemed to draw his attention back. Eyes with no black holes? That seemed very strange. He scowled, attempting to picture this image. Starfall’s eyes were a bit like that, now that he thought on it. Not his though. No, Guardian saw his reflection in a puddle once, his eyes had black. Though no one had ever told him these wondrous things about stars! His tail waved, excited to hear such things about souls and stars and divinity. That, he thinks, is a wonderful word. Divinity. He shall have to use that in front of Achilles, just so Achilles knew he was special too. Maybe even more special. He was a Prince and a....a.....Divinity! He frowned once more however as Mama spoke of her Mama and this Bad Guy. Why didn’t anyone protect her?
“But where was ya Papa? We ain’t he stoppin’ your Mama? Papa would not never be lettin’ ya walk into dem bad jaws, would he?”
Never. Azrael could do no wrong in the eyes of his son and the boy is sure that if Mama ever tried to walk away in her dreams that Azrael would protect her, protect all of them. His mind is still very young, still unsure about many things and yet he is far from foolish, his intelligence an obvious thing and already he has begun to make this connection between the Star walking dreamers and his Brother. Was Starfall going to try and walk away?! Who was going to protect him from his dreaming? His small face grew very serious as Mama continued to talk, after all, if there was one thing Guardian took seriously it was the protection of others. He was already Achilles King’s Guard. Maybe he could do the same for Starfall, though is isn’t sure Brother’s Guard is a rank. Maybe Achilles can make it one. He shifted, uncomfortable as Mama’s words. Wouldn’t live long without him? Surely Starfall would not be hurt or walk away......puppies didn’t die. Only old wolves like Grandfather died and Starfall would live for a very, very long time, he had to, Guardian wouldn’t know what to do without him, he had always been there, from the very, very beginning.
“I.....I dun know how to be protectin’ him.”
His voice was soft, quite as his eyes stared down at his Angel Marked paws, clearly ashamed as this admittance. How could he keep Starfall safe from his dreams? Or from walking away? Was he never to sleep? His worries moved within his mind, distracted slightly when Andromeda spoke again, telling him off for his use of the word, or at least, reminding him only to use it when he was older. Oh. Maybe that was a word just for adults then. He pondered it a moment before Mama asked him who he loved best, cheeky grin touching his features once more as he looked back towards her, giggling lightly.
“I’mm lovin’ you da best and when Papa be askin’ I am sayin’ him, den everyone is bein’ loved da best eh? Mama, dun be lickin’ ma hair! Ya messin’ it up!”
Hair, after all, is a very important thing.
