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 11, 2015 at 00:25:46 AM by AITHNE
Since becoming Empress of Iromar Aithne had been kept incredibly busy. The quite marsh had suddenly turned into a smorgasbord of wolves seeking to gain her attention and perhaps her favor, though they would have to complete their tasks and do as she asked before such could be said. She is a very forthright creature with respect for those who were capable of completing tasks and of handling themselves. That did not mean she desired only the strong and large to call the marshes home, for there were many wolves of keen intellect and small bodies who would be just as fine of wolves to have in her ranks. But there were some weak creatures that did not do anything but suck the blood out of others - leeches in their own right - and those wolves she would not see in the marshes. Against the other packs Iromar had been regrettably wanting in many areas. Andras, with his extreme reputation, had warded off such violent futures by himself, but Aithne was new and untried as of yet. She knew she could handle whatever came but many might assume this was the chance to act. So she was shoring up her defenses and doing what needed to be done.
It is as she lopes down the border of Iromar with her maw dropping and lifting every so often to sniff the air that she scents the interloper. A male with the distinct scent of Diveen upon him. He had crossed her marking, which she double checked to make sure had not washed away, and traipsed into the heart of the marshes. She pauses for a moment before her ears sink low to her skull and her teeth flash in the sunlight. An Assassin perhaps? Unskilled at cloaking himself but nevertheless one who managed to sneak into the bogs? Mayhap a mischief maker who wished to catch a glimpse of the inner workings?
Whatever the reason, at the moment, she was not a happy camper. Aithne tracks his scent on swift large paws, her tail rising and fur standing on end. For a moment she pauses in a spot where the scent of the Diveen male mixes with that of an Iromar female. Vera. Aithne knew of her - she had seen the female's meanderings around the bogs in her days as Archduke and Grand Marquis. She had made it a point to know the names of those who resided in the swamp even if she didn't know them personally. But it seemed fate would make sure they met today. She did not spy any blood despite the mixed scents and she knew the female to be the only pregnant one in the swamps so her ire ratchets. Did the male seek to harm her or the unborn children? Whether or not they knew each other, Vera and her children were one of Aithne's pack and a sort of possessiveness overcomes her as she follows the scents back to the den from which the soft grunting of birthing is given to sound.
A chocolate form lays inside at the entrance of the den watching and she pauses a good distance away with ears pricked as she eyes the Diveen male. It is clear that Vera is having her children right now and that the male is watching over them, so she waits with her body on high alert. If she got the hint he would snatch up one of the pups to harm them or the mother Aithne would drag his hide right out of that hole and finish him there. But what if he was the father? How... interesting.
It seems she is correct for she sees him shuffle inside and she trots to the entrance, her head down to peer in the darkness in case she is needed, and hears his voice. Although she is irritated that he slipped in without announcing himself, Aithne finds this situation wondrous. Because if he has children here and an imprint, for surely they were not mates, then perhaps it is likely he is a possible candidate to join their ranks. And Aithne is quite into finding those worthy and willing to come join her cause. She shuffles back from the entrance and seats herself - no need to get attacked for being to close. "Congratulations, Vera. Perhaps this is not the best time to introduce myself but I couldn't help but following your companion in to see what was the matter." She cannot see the female but she knows that they can hear her voice.
