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

It is not like Eden to bring another with him. I trust his judgement, for I have Chosen him but of the girl he brings I cannot say. Eden is welcome forever and always to share what is mine, he is allied to this pack through his birth to Diveen yet of the female I know little- if nothing. Eden would not speak to her nor walk with her without reason and of this reason I am curious as it is my companion drops his head in greeting, his words met with simple nod. Perhaps I had expected him sooner, perhaps I had not, I had simply known he would come, one day and if he did not- I would go to him. He alone has understood something of my cause, he alone has travelled beside me from pack to pack, the time to visit once more growing and I hope still that he will travel again alongside me. He is not as the others, not as his siblings- he is free of this…taint that rests upon so many. I cannot do it alone. I need others, many others and yet they grow harder to find. If it is that Eden has brought this girl for a reason then I am given to believe he has cause. Eden does nothing without reason. Just as myself. I turned in that moment to the female, the move of but a muscle upon Eden’s features readily seen and passed within that moment. It is perhaps here that we differ and yet- balance each other. I am forward, it is within my blood to be as such, within my nature to hold an open curiosity much as it is with Eden though it would seem he is more dormant perhaps, his curiosity guarded like his name- so be it.

The white and grey male moves to step forward in that moment, the touch of his gaze given to meet my own with an assurance, a certainty- a purpose that is simply understood between us, the snow and russet of my head given to incline once more in a subtle nod at his words, spoken in the tongue of our bloodline, of our pack and our home- taught to those deemed worthy at birth.

“Volo.”
(I will.)

The answer is offered in this same tongue, the smooth ease of such words rolling so effortlessly from myself though indeed a part of me wishes it was not so. For now though, I will not deny the use of conversation kept…private, from a female I do not yet know or hold trust to. I have left Diveen, for I had to do as such, yet this has taught me also that the nature of others, of loners it…unique and I will not offer any trust so willingly. It is Eden’s presence however that ensures I do not summon Coza in these moments, what is to be said is for us alone, for the ears of the young. Yet it would seem she desires it to fill my ear with her words, each syllable tangling into the next as she speaks, taking it upon herself to answer and yet- not, the few questions I had asked. Her words a clever and indeed it allows the barest hint of a passing smile to linger delicately upon my lips before it is I allow my gaze to meet Eden’s once more, words softly spoken and yet lathered within truth.

Haec facit ut, nisi tantum quod dicit parum.
(She speaks much- but says little.)


It is a statement and no more, offered to Eden and no other and yet there is no criticism of such a thing within my voice, it is merely an observation, powerful shoulders shrugging in much the same manner as earlier offered by the white and peppered boy. The violet blue opalescence of my gaze turns now back to this Mistletoe. She is not so very large, not so very brightly coloured as myself yet I find contentment in the earthy tones of her pelt, in the natural sheen and simply normalcy of it. If only her mind might be given to be the same and truthfully I found myself almost desperate to believe it so.

“I did not ask for your name, though it is pleasing to know, as for his- it is his own to give.”

The words were polite, gently spoken, answering the question she asked in turn. Had she answered my own question? Perhaps, yet I had not asked for her calling, just as Eden would not be forced to give his own. She had given far more then was needed and yet offered little by way of actual answer. Eden has asked her to come, she had, for she held interest in the land yet this is not truly what I had asked. I desired to know why. For now though, it matters little, she has spoken and that is enough, she is intelligent, of this I am sure and yet perhaps this may well be her undoing as so many before her. The mind is a difficult thing- so often it lies, so often it second guesses and so often it is manipulated…wrongly just as he has done to so many. I offered a smile once more for indeed I have always been even of disposition, ready to befriend and until I am assured I am content to hold some faith in the girl before me.

“I do. Please, Mistletoe, I must ask you to look at me, to look at the white of my pelt, the colours of my eyes and the russet of my marks. Do you know what I am?”

What. Not who. For these are vastly different things to my mind and it is the ‘what’ I seek in this moment. If she knew little, or nothing, perhaps she would be one I have looked so long for, one entirely untouched by this taint of mind that seems to so afflict this place. Perhaps she is not the rare treasure that is Eden, a single one amongst a mass willing to stand aside, yet perhaps she is someone still who can help me achieve what must be done. We will see.

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 ...
