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.

Broken. The only emotion that could even exemplify the ivory and onyx hessian's mood. It was as if his heart had collapsed and shattered on the terrain, millions of shards spread covering the grass. Despite the exaggerated dramatic-ness of that surreal scene, Calix was hurting. Not only had he lost his mother, but his closest friend, practically young sister, the week after. Some say his sadness was a weakness, but in reality, the brute was overwhelmed with two deaths in the same week; too hard-to-handle deaths. In fact, upon his return to Andere Seite the last time, he had been depressed, but at least hopeful that Clover and Seline would be awaiting his return. However, he had the worst reality check when he was told of Clover's death by Taru. He had snapped at her, as well as his body in two. The truth was too much to handle, and within the few minutes the ivory and ebony male was in the territory, he had suddenly disappeared once again. So much for being the tough warrior he was thought to be. Now Calix felt empty; a hole in his heart that wasn't filled, and he never knew if it would be. But nor did he really care. He had hardened into someone's who's emotions rarely ever showed, and now just seemed as though he were a hollow shell of his former self. Calix had decided to stay away from Andere Seite for a while, and so far the experience hasn't been too great. However, whenever her neared the borders, he would notice the lack of his former Queen's perfume, and turn away once more. The only faintly familiar smell around the area was Quirino, but yet the salt and pepper warrior couldn't bring himself to remaining at the territory to ask for permission of his return. Ivory pillars didn't stop this time, though. Quirino's howl had reached his ears as he was passing, and Calix was immediately turning towards the imaginary line, only to find himself coming to a halt before he could take a step across. For a split second, he hesitated. The male didn't know if he should, and yet it felt so right, as if this was supposed to happen. With a deep breath, he breathed in the scent of the domain, catching the faint aroma of the several wolves at the meeting. Wait..what was that? Calix's topaz luminaries widened for a moment when her perfume hit his nostrils, and the moment of recognition followed, pushing him to take his first few steps into his old pack and towards the meeting. Being that she was the only one he knew around these lands, he quickened his pace in happiness to reach the mass of wolves. His muscles quivered at his anticipation, along with the relisation that he was home. Everything went by in a blur; the tree allowed dappled light to seep through the canopies and down upon him, moving over his body about as swiftly as his paws crunched the leaves beneath him. Slowing his pace as he neared the group, his heart thundered in his ears. His topaz orbs peered through the foliage as he wandered through it, the branches pulling against his white and black coat. His eyes noticed the crimson first, recognizing Quirino before his eyes moved to a smaller brute of a snow white hue being antagonized by the true regal here-Cade. For a moment his gaze lingered on the two, wondering what she was doing, but that didn't last long. Calix's line of vision caught Seline next to a male whom he didn't recognize. Topaz eyes locked with her emeralds, and something he hadn't thought about hit him; What if she didn't remember him? [[ This post sucked -_- I was distracted and in a rush :( I'm sowwy. They will get better! ]]  |
