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.

her house sinks down to death and her course leads to the shades,
Part of her had been jealous that the men did not innately need to do so much in the raising of children. More often than not, it was the women that took on the brunt of the child rearing. That was enviable, particularly while in her current state. She was tired, sore, swollen and fighting the anger that had saturated her since the war - and for what? Simply so that her daughter could be happy, and so that her daughter could learn whatever it is that she so desired. Perhaps that is what Iromar lacked. Perhaps Iromar needed some kind of nanny wolf to do such a job - she should have called for Chael but it was too late now. Perhaps it had been folly for her to expect her daughter to do as she was told, or to fall for a plan that had seemed so foolproof.
It didn't matter now, for soon enough Elesor had taken off in the wrong direction. With an agitated snarl, Lillith began to hobble after her once more, the wound over her leg breaking open its scabs and beginning to bleed once more. There was no need to suppress her anger now for her daughter had surely ignited it once more - bleeding, weak and injured was not a state in which Lillith wished to be in so close to the water. Baphomet had fallen in a time where he had not been injured and he had almost been double Lillith's weight. Had a large alligator decided to have made a meal of Elesor, her mother would have had no other choice to simply allow it. It was by sheer luck that Andras had not been so terribly handicapped in the war though Lillith still shrieked a hoarse snarl when his lip began to bleed once more, splitting up and over his teeth. Such rage pushed her forward until she, too, stood at the edge of the marsh, the gator sinking back into the water. With the water so filthy, she could not satiate her desire to enter and truly destroy the creature for its transgressions. The multiple eyes staring from the water soon reminded her that it was not a safe place to be and with a snap of her jaws, she turned and moved away.
Even as her daughter bounded to her, Lillith took little heed. Andras' punishment was swift, allowed entirely by the dark female as she maintained her distance, growling low within her throat. Her eyes fixated upon her daughter - ears pressed back, hackles like knives along her spine as she stalked closer at Andras' leave. She did not hesitate to move close to her daughter, her body held low. Closer and closer until she was but some inches away before she snapped her jaws once more, their metallic clacking echoing out through the mists.
"Vis ut moriatur?"
Do you want to die? She asked in their home tongue, the words sharp and cruel as she stared her daughter down. It would have been all too easy for the situation to go awry - the girl would need to learn soon enough that she and Andras would not always be there to protect her, particularly come the spring.
"Te munus meum... erat vitam. Do not waste such a thing, Elesor."
("My gift to you was life.")
She remained close, not once allowing the girl the opportunity to bound away - if she so tried, Lillith would not hesitate to grab her, too, by the scruff and force her still. Though her daughter had been indeed growing, she still had some time before she could escape the physical punishment of her parents.
"Do you understand?"
It seemed the day's lesson had begun whether the young girl wanted it to or not.
all who go to her cannot return and find again the paths of life
