Get with me if you want to move up in rank. I'm going to change up the pack tasks for a little change of pace.
Congratulations to Adrian on her promotion to Governess. She will handle the guidance and teaching of our young pups in Iromar.
If you have a ^ next to your name, that means you're up for promotion so see me or send me a message on Discord so we can see where to move you. All others interested in specializing or getting a rank, let me know so we can figure out how to make that happen.
The pack board has been updated. If you wanted to remain a member, let me know either on here or Discord and I'll get you back on the board. Otherwise, let's have a thread!
I know I had a couple replies for the training with Spirane so I will be starting that thread soon. Stay tuned!
I am still working on an alliance with Diveen and Asteraia so stay tuned. If you have any information or would like to help, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas to promote activity within the pack, also, let me know. I am open for plots and such! Meanwhile, thank you all for your continued support of the pack.
YOU WILL REMEMBER ME IP: 108.245.133.46 Posted on January 5, 2015 at 10:45:38 PM by AITHNE
It was only a matter of time before wolves began to trickle into Iromar in search of some new tidbit about the new Empress. About how relations with other packs would go since Andras was, in their eyes, out of the picture. Yet the old King still lingered in Iromar serving as Aithne's right paw even while he lounged in the den of sickness and his daughter worked to treat him. He might be a tad insane at the moment (or, as some might say, his whole life) but Aithne had given him her respect. That would not be taken away now that he had bequeathed Iromar to her. She did not fret that he would rise from his sickbed and demand his kingdom back; some might wish him dead so they did not have such a thing to worry about. Some were not Aithne.
She sits at the edge of a marshy lake with the tall fronds folded abruptly to the side to accommodate her large size. Ripples spread through the stagnant water, the only tell-tale sign of the vicious lizards that lurk below. Empress or no they will snatch her into the water if she sets one foot in their territory. They will drag her figure to the depths of the rotting waste until only liquid consumes her lungs and until she ceases to fight. And she will become their meal, the flesh and bones of Iromar. A minnow darts to the surface of the lake, the sunlight creating a baleful glare against it's brownish scales before it dives down into the murk below beneath the watchful emerald eyes of Aithne.
It is peaceful here despite what many think. The marshes might house many strange dangers but they were also weapons to be used in the defense of her own wolves. Not many could say they knew Iromar like the back of their paw - if ever besieged or outnumbered all Aithne really had to do was lure her attackers in and let the marsh do the rest. One slip of a paw here and they would become a part of the stench that the warm air brings.
A deep howl claims the air and her russet backed ears flick around. A summons from an outsider that is met only a few moments later by the softer tones of Raven seeking Aithne. A proud smile caresses her maw for a moment for Andras's daughter has done nothing but earn her way in this world. Aithne would reward her handsomely for all her hard work. For now she picks herself up and trots towards the boundaries that now smell of both her and Andras, a potent mix.
She spies them from distance away, the dark female and white male and Raven standing before them. The last words of the girl are caught by her ears and she turns her darker eyes towards the Diveen wolves, most especially the female who appears to have been a healer of Raven. Perhaps there is hope in this meeting after all. While they remain neutral Aithne lifts her tail and her head for this is her land and she is the Empress here. It is not meant to intimidate nor to dissuade them, just to reveal her own pride and that Aithne would protect her land.
"Greetings, strangers of Diveen." Her hoarse voice rolls out and her eyes flick to Raven, her maw dipping in approval slightly. The girl would prove to be a great asset to the marshes. "I am Aithne, although I assume you know this," she says with a slight curve to her lips in a jest. "Just as I assume you are here to talk of peace, yes?"
