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.
SOME TURN TO DUST OR TO GOLD IP: 108.245.133.46 Posted on January 18, 2015 at 00:59:37 AM by AITHNE
In the shadows with such a full belly it seemed that anything was possible. The birds of the swamps twittered and the thin limbs of gnarled trees creaked beneath their tiny weight while the bullfrogs croaked in random intervals. Everything about the day had gone smooth, from awakening Phantom, to the hunt, and then to the feasting. For a moment she had felt the weight of the world once more fall down upon her when he mentioned his own demons - ghosts. It had been like dousing her with cold water to reacquaint herself with the harsh reality of life and it had left her with that wariness, the same wariness that had been ingrained. Bone deep and set in with muscle memory. Yet Aithne was not an overeager fool. She prided herself on the clear nature of her mind, able to calmly take such facts and weigh them together before making decisions. In her mind the vast majority of things could be fixed if those who needed them fixed simply tried. So she offers to Kneph an alternative to chasing him away or living with the ghosts that plague him. Of course, she is not much taken with the idea of the supernatural. In her minds eyes she wonders if Kneph simply has a mental issue that needs dealt with, same as she had thought of Malikye, but she kept that thought buried deep so not even a hint flashed on her face.
Calm dark jade eyes watch the way his tail rises and the only thing she can think that describes Kneph in this moment is the word hopeful. As if a sudden fire has been lit in his bright eyes. As if he, too, has only just realized the potential to change the fate that has been his own ball and chain for so long. He looks at her as if she has been the light to banish the darkness that coils around his blue-black body and for a moment she feels infinite. Like she has done something truly extraordinary - the feeling churns in her chest and coalesces into a ball that drops into her stomach with a pleasant burning sensation even when her lips twitch into an almost gentle smile.
The way he gestures makes it all easy to understand though she doesn't fully understand what he alludes to when he tries to silently tell her of Drudge and Nox. Heck, really, she doesn't even know his name. Her ears fall backwards as she ponders on ways to help him. What would help him? Her eyes flick to birds that swoop by while he waits for her reply. "I think..." she starts heavily, "That we must consult a healer. Maybe there is something they can give to strengthen.. I don't know, you internal resistance to the ghost? And if not then maybe there is something spiritual they can do. I haven't much experience in this to be quite honest, Phantom, but you can be assured we will try whatever avenue we can. Let us start here in Iromar. If Lamia does not know a method or it does not work then we can seek the other packs. I have heard of Dreamwalkers in Diveen and those who see into the Stars. If they can do that then surely they can get your ghosts to go away and give your tongue back."
She nods abruptly at that as the avenues of possibilities lay out before her, her eyes flicking back to Kneph to see how he would take such things. After all, it was his tongue they were talking about, and he would have to be willing to try about anything.
