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.

Why is it that she growls at me? It sounds so much like the alligators I watch - a gurgled, hissing sound. I do not understand it, not entirely. Mother has never taught me to not approach a wolf who seems so mad, and neither has father. In fact, I often see them approach such wolves or be such wolves themselves. As a child, I am often approached by growling puppies - it is what we do. We growl because we wish to play and thus, I must come to the conclusion that my attention is desired. That in itself is strange, making me pause and tilt left, right, left, right in question. Mother is silent on the matter, though I can feel Istas shaking his head slowly within me. The only thing I do that is any different because of that awful sound she makes is that I look away, instead gazing about the sky and marshes as if there are a million other things to watch in awe. Still, I try to look at her wound but so suddenly, she is very much like the alligators - teeth, teeth, teeth and hissing, spit. I do not like that. I pull back momentarily, my eyes wide with shock as my ears push forward. I must admit... I am a still startled, my heart racing just that little faster. It is certainly not the same way we puppies play and I think I understand it better. Dummy.
"Those teeth. They have killed many?"
I cannot help but ask, my eyes finally shifting from the sky and marshes to her long canines, watching them glisten in the dim light. Even though I am still taken aback, keeping much more of a distance than I had intended, I am still curious. I know her colours well. Elesor had the same colours and though she had never growled in such a fashion, she had been mean nonetheless. Perhaps that is what the colours mean. Perhaps they truly are marked in blood as mother would have me think. To think that I had always believed she told me such a thing to merely keep me out of trouble when it is surely true. It is... exciting. My heart still races but I am thinking it more excitement now. Death. How fascinating. Blood, death, wounds, the act of killing. I have heard of it, I have seen my own mother and father's twisted scars and punctures and yet... I have never seen a Demon's.
When she speaks, I listen intently, my head twisting so suddenly towards her with keen interest. I wave my tail, fascinated as I dare take another slow, long step forward towards her, still watching the way her lips curled so slightly over her teeth. I have never seen such... anger? Mother is mad sometimes, yes, but she is dismissive, instead taking me elsewhere or merely leaving with a single growl. Never has she looked at me in such a way.
"Do I make you.. angry?"
Again, I tilt my head, finally completing my series of slow steps and once more halting, having bridged another foot or two between us. I furrow my brows, my lips taut in worry over such a possibility. I do not wish to make her mad for now, I have so many questions for her.

Governess
The guardian of offspring in Iromar.

No one to train but the pups or even adults of Iromar when they have questions or curiosity about the past. This wolf may even be called upon by the Council at times. Can block steals.
Soothsayer
