News - SUMMER
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.

-- Arturio

I hear his smaller form, lingering in the den all alone on this day. Eden is my child that needs the least amount of attention, but he still requires attention like all young pups do. Of course, my own children do not need coddling like many of the others do. They are strong of body and mind. They are superior in every way, despite the vast differences in personality. They have generally grown at the same rate, my children, and I expect them to be of supreme excellence like myself. My copper eyes, with blue that is particularly striking on this day, watch as he exists the den and stands before me. He is always watching, always analyzing my features and I find it rather amusing. I do not expect any less of him. He is not some unobservant ignorant puppy that flops around like a dead fish. He is my Eden, and I am pleased to find that he searches for tells in my face.

He won't find any though, not on this morning. I keep my face still, elegantly beautiful with a strong presence and always hard, slightly narrowed eyes. I have a sharp look, like that of a deadly fang drenched in the blood of the weak. He will only find my ever-present strength as he looks upon my dark form. I am pleased though, to hear that he will not put up a fight and will listen to his dear, knowledgeable mother. I am indeed the one who brought him into this world. I created him, grew him from my very being. It would only be logical for him to listen to his maker, and I am not as...worthless as my own mother was.

He inquires about what we are doing, always curious and so blunt. I can see the suspicion in his eyes. Something he really needs to rid himself of unless he wishes to build distrust. I can see though, that he looks at his surroundings to see if anyone is watching. A simple thing, but a thing many wolves fail to do often enough. My own ears are always listening for the slightest change in the air, the slightest hint of difference and to act accordingly. I am pleased to see that he is like me, not wishing to be seen or heard until he wishes it. That is how it should be, for my very own son.

"Voluptatis, ut non sit necesse. Ibi est vitium in sanguinem nostrum."
(Eden, not all is as it needs to be. There is a taint upon our blood.)

My voice rings, elegant as I lower my muzzle and my own voice to that of slightly hushed whispers.

"Scis hoc indignius? Hoc infirmum quod plagas me et te? Haec mea conditio est, et pater non. Est sum fortitudine infirmitas. Non meruit c�li spirat. Mihi carissime voluptatis scis de infirmitate mea hac?"
(Do you know of this unworthy? This weakness that plagues you and me? She is the failed creation of my own mother and father. She is the weakness and I am the strength. She deserves not the air she breathes. Tell me, dear Eden, do you know of this disease?)

As I speak, my voice becomes etched with a tone much darker. A tone that is kissed with the sweet venom of spider and snakes that drips off my very own wicked tongue. There is a seriousness to me, that never leaves, but does indeed intensify like on this day when I speak to my son. He needs to know that I mean business. I am not one of games. I am one who wishes our very blood to be cleansed, but also to emphasize something important to Eden. Never to respect the weak, and if the moment is right...to take care of it. I have never gotten the right chance to take care of my worthless sister. I have yet to find her in a place alone, where scents can be covered. There is an advantage to being in this pack, even if many of meaningless and weak. It is like a camouflage, but one that must not be violated. There is another thing within in this pack that I wish to be taken care of...this Chance. This wolf very much ugly and very much terrible. I let my tail flick in irritation simply thinking about him, and how I wish he would drop dead. I would love nothing more than to come across his rotting body, covered in maggots and flies.

I snap my attention back to Eden, allowing my copper eyes to lock upon him. I cannot deny that I am unable to soften my intensity unless I am truly wishing to deceive those around me, but I am in no such mood today. Eden is my son, and he gets me just as I am for now. I will not deny the possibility of having to act differently around him in the future. It all depends on how my son turns out in the end. If he will meet his destiny to be an extension of my own self, my own power. I hold no doubt, for now, that he will. Now let us see if my dear Eden knows of his little pup of an aunt, and just how far he is willing to go...
