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

“My dear Sorcier, no service will be required for you to find something as simple as a home. It is up to you in what path you choose with us, and where you would like to go.”

The words were absolute sanction to his ears. It was just the clarity that he would need to make it through tonight, to finally know that he had found something that would be the starting foundation of a life, his life, which was now available to him.

The warmth in the other male wolf was assurance, like the guidance that Elder had once offered which felt like so long ago even now, and just as Sorcier was about to raise up his head, he had felt a gentle push against the side of his neck. The exhale from Sen’s nostrils and whiskers told Sorcier that it was a gesture given by the male’s muzzle, and before Sorcier could say much more, the other began once again.

“I am happy to welcome you as my brother, though the final decision rests with Coza- Cozscotl- my Alpha and my dearest friend. I guarantee he is the kindest and oddest speaking wolf you will have ever met.”

There was that “it” factor. So this male was not the Alpha, which made this situation a bit more realistic. Not everything could be lain out with fresh roses and promises, could they not? Even with that being the case, the sound of the Alpha in the manner that Sen spoke of him gave Sorcier the impression that there was nothing to truly fret over. Knowing himself however, and how he had asserted his submission to the male just moments before—he would treat the Alpha, as well as no other member of the pack, differently. To him, they all possessed something that he was dire for-- a home, thus, making them more valuable in regards to their character, not so much as actual worth. He would never lay a price over anyone’s soul in any case of the matter, as Elder had taught him that we were all from the same earth, all from the same moon, and all from the same sun.

This then led to more questions. If Sen was not the Alpha, then what exactly.. was he? Claiming to be a dear friend to the Alpha, he must have a specific place amongst the pack that helped defined just that. Sen had not attacked him or gave off any impression that he was the hand of justice for the Alpha, or maybe he was and decided it was not worth the conflict? No, Sorcier could not picture this wolf as someone who dealt physicality or war cries in his life—not to say he wasn’t capable, for if this was his role amongst the pack, Sorcier just simply did not know.

“Please.. might I see your eyes?”

Sen had ripped Sorcier right out of his trance once again and, sheepishly, the male’s ears had flattened back against his skull in embarrassment for his lost mindedness. The question still rang in his ears, but in a different voice. Elder’s. Elder had asked the same question when Sorcier was just getting ready to be a yearling, for what reason, Sorcier never really understood but then something just happened to click for him. Perhaps Sen was a teacher, or a healer, or something of that suit—just as Elder had aspired for Sorcier to become. If this were the case, then perhaps Sorcier could further his eager knowledge in the craftsmanship of the earth and the nurturing properties that it had possessed. There he went again, rambling. Restraining a scornful growl directed for himself for this lack of respect and utter decency, the wolf had picked up his head so that Sen would not have to lower himself to the moistened, disheveled ground. After all, with a coat like that, he must take pride in it just as much as Sorcier would take pride in his own.

The sight of Sen’s eyes were truly.. unfathomable. They were of a color that Sorcier had never witnessed before except for in those bleak moments where the sky was painted in a mirage of blues, oranges, pinks, and purples. Sen’s held the essence of the purple in the skies at sun setting hour, yet there were many subtle variations to this colour that were just, in other words, unexplainable. These violet irises would contrast perfectly against the ember that layeth in the depths of his owns. By now, the topaz would surely be highlighted by the imperfections of copper and ruby splinters that littered the iris encompassing his pupil. The copper began to grow heavy on the topaz at this hour, much like a fire that was slowly coming to the last of its kindle, but refused to be blown out.

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 ...
