News 08.08.2021
Change was long overdue in Spirane. Now that I have learned who is still an active presence within the pack, the ranks have been updated. As I once took time away from the pack, so too now shall Kalseru. Know that she is still second in command of the pack, as is reflected in her rank. Once you are familiar with the new ranking system, if you would like to change positions or move up in the ranks you need only ask. Let this be a time of new life in Spirane, and a promise of great things to come!

When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies, but the pack survives.

I hear footsteps in the dark, the ruffle of Orba's feathers as she scuttles a little further away, giving room for the golden-russet figure who now stood protectively over me. Head tilts upon my paws towards him, one ear flicking gently in the breeze as his voice drifts over me like a soothing balm. Eyes flutter, fighting against the darkness that threatens to consume me. Fighting against the exhaustion. I was weakening fast, but I was not yet ready to relinquish this world just yet.

Mother. He had called me mother. A small smile crept upon my lips. I was undeserving of such a title as that, not from him, for whom I have been painfully absent when he was in most need.

"I..." My voice is a cracked whisper, hardly audible. "...am proud to call you Son." It was all I could say, all I could offer, and I hoped it was enough.

And then my silver knight was at my side. He was my Morning Star, my Evening Star... the light the guided and kept me close no matter how far apart the world had separated us. I let out a breathy sigh as his warmth envelopes me, his strong powerful legs slipping beneath my figure to tenderly cradle me close to his chest. I turn and burrow my face into the hollow of his chest, inhaling deeply of his scent as all fear is erased, replaced by the all-consuming Love that burned between us. My Spirit feels the soothing balm of my Imprint's nearness, and it is as if the sacred connection drives out the pain, numbing it and making me feel Whole even if my temple of flesh was left in tatters.

"I knew... you would come, My Love. I'm... Sorry..." I whispered between shallow gasps.

A shrill cry is heard then, and the pale tawny figure of my youngest appears in my peripheries, the broken-hearted wail of a child in distress causing me to lift my head despite the immense effort it took. Lavender gaze focuses upon my little Haven, and one paw reaches out to scoop her in close to my chest where I can coddle her close. Others come now... one by one flooding in to circle me. I can feel their pain almost as raw and brutal as my own wounds. Tassel sways gently with the appearance of Niviaq, who had served me so loyally and well. My eyes upon her tell her there is nothing for her to be sorry for. There was no salve that could fix this. She was an amazing healer and I wished I had the strength left to tell her so. Snowshoe and her cubs came next, and she valiantly offered comfort to my own babes. My eyes go to her, knowing she is the only nursing mother in Spirane. I worry about the future of my youngest cubs, whether they were even safe to stay upon the mountainside. I cannot entrust the lives of my cubs to the woman that now robs me of mine. My eyes seek hers, my prior opponent now my ally and sister. Tend to them My eyes seem to plead. Until such time they find safe refuge or can fend from raw meat.

Other faces shift in and out of the gathering, Attu and Isola, Kane and even Heyel. Crown lifts higher for another moment as my gaze meets that of my fellow Queen. I nodded to her, from one Queen to another, One Sister to Another. Her offer was greatly appreciated and again I cursed this weakening body, the windpipe too battered to withstand many words more. I knew my older children would see that my newest litter was kept safe-guarded, and that they too had a Haven to seek should Spirane no longer welcome them.

And then, at long last, the faces I wanted to see most finally appeared, as if my final prayer had been heard- and answered.

My Eldest Daughter Orca, quickly followed by my pink-painted girl Ceal, and then Idunn and Sleekwing. I let them come to me, bundling the youngest girls in close to me just as I had with Haven. Ceal's sobs are heart-wrenching, and it cleaves my soul in twain knowing that I cannot stop her pain. Idunn was more defiant, putting on strong face. She had the heart of a warrior, and reminded me so much of her grandfather Thunderbone. My muzzle drifts sluggishly to each of them, tongue rasping a slow kiss upon each of their foreheads, each a potent caress filled with all the Love I could possibly imbue into the gesture.

"Shhh.... it's ok. I am Here..." I spoke soothingly. And then, there is a touch, feather-light, at my back. I struggle to glance across my shoulders, but mothers' intuition tells me who it is.

"Daenerys..." I breath her name, a soft summons... wanting her before me where I could see her beautiful cameo. When I can see her face, my amethyst gaze becoming crystaline clear if for only in this moment, and I call on the last of my energy, my voice for the last time flowing with strength, confidence and an otherworldly wisdom.

"...My Daughter... there is so much left unsaid. So much I wished to do together.But take heart, You have much of your grandmother, Boneclaw, within you. You were born for greatness... Never forget this. And know, that I am Always with you..."

She scope of my gaze broadens, to encompass all of my children within the bright burning violet of my eyes.

"I am with you Always, my children. Even if you cannot see me, even if you cannot feel me or hear my voice. I am at your side and we will met again in our dreams. I love each and every one of you... a Mother could never be more ...more...." The tremor begins again, the strength ebbing as swiftly as it had come. the last word is hushed, hardly murmured, but resnonant as if it had been shouted to the whole world. "...proud."

My head falls against Alcide's chest. Eyes falling closed as the clarity of their depths is snuffed out. Breathing comes short, shallow. Each one a painful effort. My eyes look to the moon, haloed in rainbows against the cobalt sky. And then I see the bright shining spirits, the tongues of the Great Ones once more speaking to me. My heart jumps with joy within my chest, and I can hear my mother's voice , my father's primordial howl, beckoning me... calling me home.

"Can you hear that, my Love?" I whisper against Alcide's cheek.

"Walk with me... Let us hunt among the stars...." And with a final breath, embraced in my Lover's arms, I let myself slip away, my Soul shrugging off the shackles of it's broken body and hovering a moment as I await my Alcide to join me.

Together, we ascend into the Aether, where we will never know Pain or separation again.
