Announcements as of July 28, 2021

I have called you, and you have answered my call --

Do not mistake my silence for weakness, my forest kin. For I am willing to defend you with my fangs and claws, until the days come when am no longer able to. Keep an eye on the borders for Zelda and her sister Midna, because I will welcome them back into the flock on the day of their return.

The flood has left our forest home in a sorry state of disarray. I shall not tolerate this. Summer is here and we must rebuild our dens in time for winter. There is a lot of hard and dirty work ahead of us. But we shall face it together, as family, as a pack. Let's get back to work and then we shall hunt. I hunger for a feast.


From your new Alpha --

Moonshade, the Gravekeeper of Moladion

This is a light carefree feeling and not one that I intend to ever let go of. I've had mates in my day, mates hat died, mates that left me. Every one of them was akin to the love of my life but I was always strong enough to move on. Even whn Daft Punk died and I felt like my soul was empty and forsaken, never to feel this way again, te world of Moladian decided to heal it and give me Coza and for that, I will never regret it. He has become so much more to me than just an imprint. He is my lifeline, my reason to live now when I have nothing. I am a mother and my children still live but they have lives of their own to be living and I don't want to hold them back from anything. They are strong and they will survive as I have. I can expect no less from them.

I know that he worries about me just as I worry about him. I guess its only natural when half of your very being is not with you twenty four/seven. I nods in reply, his eyes telling me that he'll try but we both know it won't be so easy. I smile knowingly and cling to his pelt, nuzzling my head in his shoulder just to feel the comfort of his skin.

When we reach his oen little piece of paradise, I can feel his elation as he takes in my reaction. He knows that I can sense it, the beauty of this place, the rightness of it all. He doesn't answer my puzzled gaze about why there's no den for him but I don't need an answer, not when I see why he would choose a place like this to settle down at night. It's so peaceful, so perfect. He seems anxious, as if there's a chance I could think his home is anything but beautiful. And yet there's still anxiety in his gaze when I answer that question. I search his eyes, wishing I could read his thoughts. What is he so afraid of? I know the question that's probably weighing on him is the same that's been weighing on me since he took over Taviora. My home. Where will I stay? When I'm in Diveen, I know that I am surrounded by family and friends yet when I am here, I feel alive, I feel whole, and with Coza, I feel complete.

He wags his tail at my answer and I smile automatically. He offers me a den every time I visit and I chuckle a little.

"Thank you, Coza. I will probably end up indulging you with my presence more than even you would like since I agree that this place is the best for sleeping, den or no den."

I offer him a teasing wink, knowing that he would probably never turn down my presence. That's about when I decide to give him a little bit of a wake up call, splashing his face with water as I bark in play and take off across the pack lands. He's in hot pursuit, barking behind me as I giggle and slow my pace some so he can catch up. I let him get beside me so I run closer, our fur brushing together as I give him a sly sideways glance. How could I ever be happier? With him by my side, I have nothing to complain about. But I also don't want to be selfish. He is young and he would make another wolf so very happy as her mate. I know Fathom likes him. Could he ever return her feelings? I would feel wrong taking that chance from her. Should I be giving him more space, trying my hand at match making? I don't want to take the decision away from him but I don't want him blinded by our imprint, so much that he misses out on a life that would be perfect for him. How can I decide when I myself am blinded by my deep love and affection for him?

Before I know it, I'm slowing up in a meadow between the tree lines, reaching out to press my nose into Coza's scruff, inhaling his strong musky cologne. When I look at him, my eyes are sad and vulnerable.

"Coza, I want everything in life for you and more. I want you to be happy, whether its with me or someone else. I don't want to take away that decision from you. I want to stay here with you but I don't want to hold you back from true happiness. I don't know what to do..."

My eyes are helpless, wishing he could tell me exactly what I want to hear, even though I don't even know what that is. Fathom could be the best thing for him but he's the best thing for me. I can't be selfish, not with him.

THE FOREST RANKS

THE GRAVEKEEPER

The Alpha Male of Taviora. He will accept all challenges and block any steals. He has taken an oath to protect all within the forest, alive and dead.

THE KEEPER OF SECRETS

This will be Moonshade's chosen co-alpha. They will also be able to accept challanges and steals in order to defend Taviora.

THE KEEPER OF TRUTHS

This rank will belong to the chosen heir of Taviora. This wolf will probably share Moonshade's blood. This rank can be challenged for if you believe that you are a better candidate for the job.

THE FOREST COUNCIL

Although the Alpha's have the final say in all matters, Taviora is still a pack, we are still a community. These wolves are the most senior members of our ranks. Their role is to guide, serve and protect. All of them have earned their place here and they should be respected at all times. Every position on the council can be challanged for by a subordinate pack member. However the council has the right to block a pack member from gaining the position if they have concluded that the individual has placed their own selfish desires before the best interest of the pack as a whole.

THE TUSKS

The packs lead fighter. One of the strongest and bravest in our ranks. They will answer the call to protect the forest if either of the Alpha's are absent.

THE JAWS

The packs head of defence. They are our chief hunter and guardian to all within the forest borders. They know every inch of Taviora and every wolf within.

THE HORNS

The packs most senior teacher. They are responsible for teaching and guiding all of our young and new members so that they will reach their full potential.

THE EYES

The packs trusted informant. This wolf spends a lot of their time outside the forest borders, keeping their eyes, ears and nose peeled for news or potential trouble. Due to the secretive and dangerous nature of this rank, only a wolf that the pack can trust with their lives will obtain this responsibility.

THE DARKDWELLER

This is Taviora’s Head Healer. This wolf is responsible for treating the pack's wounds, injuries and illnesses. They are also expected to be one of the first on scene when a mother goes into labour. Along with their counterpart, The Soothsayer, they will train future healers for the service of our pack and our allies.

THE SOOTHSAYER

This is Taviora’s Head Counselor. Their knowledge of healing and herbal remedies are equal to that of their counterpart, The Darkdweller. This wolf specializes in helping us conquer the unseen demons in our heads and our hearts. They are also expected to help bring all children of the forest safely into this world.

NIGHTWATCHERS

Our trusted packmates that guard the borders while the rest of us sleep safely in our dens. If something is amiss within our lands, they should be the first to intercept any threat and call for back up when needed. Some might not call themselves soldiers, but they will spill blood if push comes to shove.

DAWNSTRIDERS

The most diligent and selfless of our pack. They are up at first light and leave our inner sanctum every few days in search of prey. They hunt far and wide in order to make sure none of us go hungry. While not out hunting, they are free to relax or assist the Nightwatchers, Daylightres or Dawnstriders with their tasks.

DAYLIGHTERS

This group will make up the bulk of our pack, they are our beloved family. They are generalists and commoners who are charged with looking after the most central and sacred parts of our home. Along with The Horns, they are expected to watch out for our children. We are happy to keep all within our ranks that love and respect the forest of Taviora.

DUSKWALKERS

Rumoured to be the most free spirited and independent members of our pack, they guard when no other eyes are available. They wander down all the winding dirt paths and have been known to explore into the freelands. They are envoys and ambassadors who assist The Eyes with their duty of keeping us all safe.

ANCIENT PINES

These wolves are older and have retired from active service. We thank them for all that they have done for our pack, however long or short their tenor was. They shall live out the rest of their years with the best food, shelter and company we can offer them.

THE BRIAR PATCH

This is the name for Taviora’s nursing mothers and their litters of puppies. Once they are born, at least one parent is expected to temporarily step down from their role in order to raise their pups for the first 6 months of their lives. An exemption can be made if another mother is willing to look after the young while the parents resume their service to the pack.

THE SAPLINGS

Too big for the briar patch but not yet old enough to be called a daylighter. These are all puppies between the age of 1 and 3. Pups can start their training from 2 and above if The Horns has found a suitable Mentor for them.

THE WELCOMED

These wolves are welcome within our borders anytime of the day or night. Blocking their access will be met with disapproval and possible punishment.

THE BANISHED

They are enemies of our pack and their presence will not be tolerated within or near our home. Those caught in contact with a wolf on this list will likely share the same fate.

THE SACRED TOMBS

Our brothers and sisters that have sadly left us for their next adventures. We give thanks for their lives and we send them on with all our love, hopes and dreams. Moonshade will accept the bones of any wolf that has ever called Taviora their home and will find them a special place within our hallowed grounds. Every burial mound is individual and sacred. Tampering or messing with one will not be tolerated. A crime against the dead will be treated as though it has been committed against a living pack member.

Remember, we are always watching from the shadows ...
