Get with me if you want to move up in rank. I'm going to change up the pack tasks for a little change of pace.
Congratulations to Adrian on her promotion to Governess. She will handle the guidance and teaching of our young pups in Iromar.
If you have a ^ next to your name, that means you're up for promotion so see me or send me a message on Discord so we can see where to move you. All others interested in specializing or getting a rank, let me know so we can figure out how to make that happen.
The pack board has been updated. If you wanted to remain a member, let me know either on here or Discord and I'll get you back on the board. Otherwise, let's have a thread!
I know I had a couple replies for the training with Spirane so I will be starting that thread soon. Stay tuned!
I am still working on an alliance with Diveen and Asteraia so stay tuned. If you have any information or would like to help, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas to promote activity within the pack, also, let me know. I am open for plots and such! Meanwhile, thank you all for your continued support of the pack.
I WILL SMASH THE DOOR-POSTS IP: 66.56.207.81 Posted on August 18, 2013 at 02:09:46 AM by ISHTAR.
If thou openest not the gate to let me enter,
I will break the door, I will wrench the lock,
I will smash the door-posts, I will force the doors.
I will bring up the dead to eat the living.
And the dead will outnumber the living.
She watches the pup for a moment, visually making sure that not one small hair upon her pelt was hurt. Ishtar may be a Demon, and she may be a Queen--but she was also a Mother. She was not a particular kind mother, nor a sympathetic one, she did have a soft spot for puppies. This season was particularly noticeable since she did not have any of her own to care for this year. Ishtar settles down, used to the slight moisture of the swamplands. The one would give Chernobyl a run for her money for sure and Ishtar was glad that she could hand her off safely to her mother after this little discussion on alligators.
She tilts her head as the pup exclaims how going after his blind eye would most certainly kill him. She laughs, although she tries desperately to hide it. It wasn't very kind to dash all the hopes and dreams of an aspiring gator killer. She nudges her gently. "Taking eyes only injures...it does not kill my little gator hunter." She smiles as she stands up. "I start out by waiting till he's on land and worrying the beast." She demonstrates by nudging Avery in the rump only to fly to her other side and nudge her in the shoulder. "And then, once it's tired from me worrying him...I flip him on his belly and rip out his guts!" She digs her nose underneath Avery to flip her on her back and rubs her face into her belly. "That way, even if he manages to right himself and get back in the water...the other alligators will smell his blood and rip him to shreds and I can eat the left overs." She smiles then before sitting down. "And that...my dear brave one is how I would kill an alligator."
She watches to see what the girl would think of such tactics. They were surely not the most conventional, nor were they the most heroic, but Ishtar knew that they were the safest and that they were by far the most effective. "Next spring, we'll practice on the young ones and by the time you're all grown up you'll be ready to take that gator out." She smiles then and watches the girl for a moment, genuinely interested in what the girl might have to say.
